'I didn’t know he was so reckless' - Obasanjo blasts Buhari for 'sinking' economy

Ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo has slammed former President Muhammadu Buhari for allegedly destroying Nigeria's economy by being “reckless”.

During an interview with TheCable, Obasanjo revealed that Buhari was allegedly spending money any how and had absolutely no understanding of how the economy works.

Obasanjo said:“Tinubu said the other day that it was unacceptable that he would spend 90% of revenue to service debts. I wasn’t spending 90% when I went worldwide to get debt relief. Do you think that anybody would give you debt relief today?

"Buhari was spending money recklessly. I know Buhari didn’t understand economics. I put that in my book. But that he could also be so reckless, I didn’t know. Who would you go to today and ask for a favor?

"Tinubu says he has trimmed the number of people attending the United Nations General Assembly. Is that news? He will meet with Justin Trudeau, and he will meet with Emmanuel Macron. That will not solve any problem.”
