Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang, on Monday, accused former President Muhammadu Buhari of being responsible for the current economic hardship being faced by Nigerians.
Mutfwang specifically said that “we sold our future under the last administration.”
The governor spoke on Monday during the swearing-in of 22 Special Advisers and heads of government agencies at the Government House in Jos.
“We are at a very difficult juncture in the history of this country and I’m an advocate that after the election you forget politics and face governance.
“And even though the Federal Government is being led by a party other than my own, I owe you the duty to tell Nigerians the truth that this government inherited a worse situation than 1999.”
Mutfwang said Buhari left the country’s economy in terrible shape for his successor, President Bola Tinubu.
He said: “This government inherited an economy where we simply printed money up to the tune of N30tn and shared.
“This government inherited an economy where the crude oil we’re yet to take out of the ground had been sold in advance.
“So, when you’re talking about the fall of the naira, it’s not rocket science. We sold our future under the last administration.”
