Dr Abiola Oshodi, a leading chieftain of All Progressives Congress (APC) has said Nigeria needs as its next president, a financial expert such as Sen. Bola Tinubu, the party’s presidential candidate.
He explained that the country’s increasing debt profile, occasioned by low collection of revenue, was worrisome and must be tamed by the country’s next president, hence the need for the electorate to vote for Tinubu.
The APC chieftain noted that government at various levels, including the Federal Government, had repeatedly pointed out the revenue challenges that the country was going through. According to Oshodi, the Nigeria’s total debt profile as at September 2022 is N41.60 trillion, quoting the Debt Management Office .Oshodi said that although the Minister of Finance, Mrs Zainab Ahmed, had clarified that Nigeria did not have a debt problem as it had yet to exceed its self-imposed ceiling debt of GDP to debt of 40 per cent, she had repeatedly said that Nigeria had indeed a revenue problem.
“Of all the 18 illustrious Nigerians vying to be Nigeria’s next president, Sen. Tinubu stands out due to his hands-on experience and his impressive stewardship, successfully piloting the affairs of the smallest but the most commercialised among Nigeria’s 36 states.
