Multi-award winning music producer and musician, Don Jazzy, has shared his thoughts on the economic advisory council appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The 35-year-old gave his thoughts in an Instagram post on Tuesday.
“The Appointees in the new Economic Advisory Council are some of the brightest minds we have in the country and their appointments are well-deserved.
Hopefully, the government’s reposed trust in their expertise would have positive effects on the economy. However, I would advise the govt. to prioritize the development of our HDI in this term. Substantial funds should be earmarked in our fiscal budgets to improve our Education and Health sectors in compliance with WHO and UNESCO,” he wrote in parts.
