“I can only repeat what I said before, I’ve spoken on this before. First of all, I did say one time you came into the government on the day you were inaugurated.

“After swearing in you embark on the first major policies that are very impactful on the lives of the society. It is like a cowboy, or mancho man removing subsidy. At that time, he didn’t have a Minister of Planning, that should plan the outcome, and the consequences to take of.

“You don’t have a Minister of Finance who will calculate the impact of this society. You did not even have the Federal Executive Council that will approve that, you have nothing. As at that time, nobody to advise, nobody to break out ‘what Ifs’.

“So immediately after that inauguration, Nigeria collapsed. It is like balloon. Nigeria fell down. It deflated completely. Immediately, transportation (fare) tripled.

“That week! I used to buy animal feed for my cows from Zaria, I used to pay N270,000 per truck. Immediately that week, I couldn’t buy anymore, because transportation alone was going to cost me N1 million”.

-Engineer Babachir David Lawal, Ex- SGF on Trust TV’s Daily Politics.
