Nollywood actor and Labour Party (LP) chieftain, Kenneth Okonkwo, has made a mockery of President Bola Tinubu over the national broadcast on the current economic challenge in the country.
News360 Info reports that Tinubu, in his speech, revealed plans are underway aimed at easing the current hardship many Nigerians are facing.
The president also spoke on minimum wage, fuel subsidy, which was mostly benefited by a selected group of individuals, the economy, approval of N50 billion for small-scale businesses and plans to roll out buses across states and local government for mass transit at affordable rates.
In a post via Twitter on Monday, Kenneth said Tinubu blamed everyone for the current economic woes except himself.
The LP chieftain noted he was surprised that Tinubu could blame a few powerful, rich people for being responsible for the country’s problem.
According to him, the president also failed to initiate urgent methods to fix the country’s refineries to stop 100% importation of refined petroleum, which is the greatest destroyer of foreign exchange.
He tweeted, “Just listened to the leader of APC’s broadcast and heard him blaming every other person, except himself, for Nigeria’s woes. Surprised that he blamed few powerful rich people for our problem. I will agree with him if he will agree that he is the leader of the few powerful rich people plaguing us.
He confessed that he has no solution to the current economic hardship as, according to him, there’s none. He failed to initiate urgent methods to fix our refineries to stop 100% importation of refined petroleum, which is the greatest destroyer of our foreign exchange.
Giving loans and expecting payback within one year in a depressed economy can only be possible with traders of hard drug. What a missed opportunity! This is really renewed hopelessness.”
