Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has publicly criticized President Bola Tinubu’s administration regarding its plan to secure a $1.5 billion loan from the World Bank. Atiku argues that the Federal Government (FG) should first provide a detailed accounting of currently outstanding debts. He believes transparency regarding existing financial obligations is crucial before seeking additional borrowing for new projects. This criticism highlights concerns about Nigeria’s growing debt profile and the potential for further financial strain. The former Vice President’s statement urges fiscal responsibility and calls for a clearer understanding of how previously borrowed funds have been utilized. He questions the need for new loans without first demonstrating prudent management of existing resources. The call for accountability aims to prevent potential mismanagement and ensure the effective allocation of borrowed funds within Nigeria.
