Babachir Lawal, a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, has criticized supporters of President Bola Tinubu, saying they are oblivious to the worsening insecurity and economic struggles facing the nation.
Lawal alleged that security challenges have intensified and spread further since Tinubu assumed office.
He made these remarks on Wednesday during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show.
According to him, even individuals who were previously financially stable are now feeling vulnerable, as the economic system, in his view, has deteriorated entirely.
He said: “I know he has his supporters. His supporters, I think they have cotton wool in their ears, or they are blind, because the insecurity has grown exponentially since the arrival of Bola Tinubu government.
“Insecurity has now grown; in places it was not before, it has expanded. They have not done anything.
“This government should better not talk about insecurity. When talking about it, about the economy, it is exactly the same thing. The poverty has multiplied exponentially. Even those who were doing well feel now threatened because there’s no economy, it has collapsed, completely collapsed.
“We are just surviving by the grace of God on a hand to mouth basis, everybody. So what economy?
“They are putting money that doesn’t arrive in Nigeria before it is spent, even when it arrives in Nigeria, they spend it on intangible things that we cannot show, that are not visible, you know.
“Economy is not for this government, it is not their intention, their attention is to run down this country. That is their intention.
“But now, it appeared that he just deceived us in those days all along, and now he has gotten the power and is in the mood to ruin the economy, to ruin the security of the country.”
