Former Vice President Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has taken another swipe at the Bola Tinubu-led administration, stressing that the government has been embarking on “trial-and-error” since coming on board.

In a statement sent to journalists on Monday, November 4 and signed by his spokesman, Paul Ibe, Atiku described the policies of the Tinubu-led government as “faltering.”

Atiku had over the weekend, released a statement, telling Nigerians what he would have done differently from the Tinubu administration.

The presidency had responded, describing the comments by the former vice president as “cheap talk.”

But in a rebuttal, Atiku stated: “Like many fellow Nigerians, I firmly believe that we find ourselves in this current economic turmoil due to the Tinubu administration’s hasty ascent to power, devoid of a coherent plan.

“In stark contrast, my team not only devised a comprehensive Recovery Plan but also welcomed significant input from Nigerians, ensuring that our approach was inclusive and well-considered.

“Isn’t it fascinating how the so-called “tested” Tinubu administration’s only policy response seems to be a national prayer led by the First Lady and the NSA? Just a mere 24 hours after I proposed my alternative solutions! What a bold strategy!

“Enough of the pains of the shambolic “bolekaja” economic policy prescriptions!

“We cannot hope to tax our way out of the economic quagmire wrought by these misguided experimental policies of a novice administration.

“Numerous nations, such as the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Monaco (an EU territory with a zero-income tax policy), among many others, have emerged as economic powerhouses by fostering growth through lower taxation.

“Why then are we fixated on inflicting further hardship upon an already struggling populace?

“One can only speculate that Tinubu’s government is anchored to a mere Tea-plan, which can only lead to a T-pain.”
