Nigeria Now Chattered Borrowing Nation, Says Dino Melaye

Former Kogi West senator Dino Melaye says Nigeria has now become a nation of chartered borrowers.

Melaye said this in a statement posted on his verified X handle on Thursday.

He said that the nation under the late former President Muhammadu Buhari borrowed N83 trillion in eight years.

The former lawmaker, however, lamented that Nigeria has borrowed N158 trillion in three years under incumbent President Bola Tinubu.

“Buhari with subsidy borrowed 83 trillion in 8 years while Tinubu without subsidy borrowed 158 trillion in 3 years.

“We have become a chattered borrowing nation. Where is the borrowed money please?”
