The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) has faulted Federal Government’s wholesale adoption of foreign policies and programmes without recourse to the nation’s peculiar socio-political and economic realities.

Its National President, Mrs. Comfort Eyitayo, who made the submission yesterday during a royal reception for her team by the Akarigbo and paramount ruler of Remoland, Oba Babatunde Adewale Ajayi, in Sagamu, Ogun State, warned that adopting foreign templates “hook line and sinker” to solve Nigeria’s problems might further compound the nation’s woes.

She said: “The current approach of adopting foreign policies and programmes, hook line and sinker, to address local challenges may lead the country to perpetually grope in the dark of underdevelopment. “When it becomes necessary to import foreign policies, then the managers of the country should do a smart adaptation of such policies to meet the peculiarities of our socio-political and economic dispositions.”The ICAN boss urged government to assign constitutional roles to traditional rulers, stating, “the traditional institution should fully be involved in any policy intervention to address the increasing and discouraging negative trends in the country.
