He faulted the process of removing subsidy on fuel by the president, adding that Nigerians were groaning in pain and hardship.

”The president must be told in clear terms that Nigerians are groaning in pain, especially with the sudden removal of the fuel subsidy.

”Salary increase for civil servants – whose population is infinitesimal compared to millions that are outside government employment – will not be enough to solve the present crisis. “More drastic and well-thought-out economic packages should be put in place to cushion the harsh effects of the new policy. Again, Mr. President must seek wisdom and the right kind of advice to navigate the present impasse the country has found itself,” Ubani said

He however commended the president over his decision to remove the Central Bank governor, Godwin Emefiele, and called for an in-depth investigation of the apex bank chief. He also called for the probe of the aviation ministry.All rights reserved.
