Controversial socio-political analyst, Reno Omokri, has said that President Bola Tinubu is fixing economic damages caused during the previous administration.
Omokri stated that Nigeria’s economy under Tinubu’s government is on a more sustainable path.
Speaking on Wednesday during an interview with Channels Television, the former presidential aide said that the current administration has taken necessary but tough decisions to correct economic challenges facing the country.

Omokri said: “We were living in a fool’s paradise. Tinubu has taken that away and we are now living within our means,” Omokri said on the show.
“Should we continue to go into debt because we want to give our people an artificial luxury? We were borrowing so much under ex-President Buhari.
“They were using that money to artificially inflate the value of the naira. We cannot be borrowing just to give people food. We have to produce, and that’s why we’re now producing.
“Exports are going up, and imports are reducing.
“The impression people have is that things are worse, but the truth is we have to look inward. Everything Tinubu is doing are the things that Peter Obi and Atiku said they would do.”
