Eminent Nigerians, yesterday, called
on President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently provide the right response to the
current hardship across the country.
Those who spoke to Vanguard include,
a former Minister of Transport, Chief Ebenezer Babatope; a former Chairman of
Senate Committee on Oil and Gas, Sen Lee Maeba; Second Republic lawmaker, Dr.
Junaid Mohammed; ex-President of Nigeria Bar Association,NBA, Chief Olisa
Agbakoba,SAN; and former presidential candidate, Prof Pat Utomi. Others are a
retired Police Commissioner, Alhaji Abubakar Tsav; founder of Oodua Peoples
Congress, OPC, Chief Fredrick Fahseun and Publicity Secretary of Pan-Yoruba
socio-political organisation, Mr. Yinka Odumakin.
They were reacting to name-calling
of the ministers by Nigerians, who were irked by the prevailing economic
hardship in the country at a Town Hall meeting held in Abuja last Monday.
Why observing that ministers have
performed below expectation they warned that if appropriate answers were not
provided within the shortest possible time, the country might experience a
total economic collapse.
