"This is the man they claim transformed Lagos economy?" – Phrank Shaibu reacts over Tinubu N8,000 palliatives

According to a news that was published by the Punch paper online this morning, it was reported that Mr Phrank Shaibu, who happens to be the Special Assistant on Public Communications to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, in the last election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has described President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s plan to hand out N8,000 to 12 million households for six months as a brazen attempt to divert public funds.

While he was talking, Phrank said that qccording to statistics, a Nigerian household as of 2019 counted an average of 5.06 members. So, with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s uninspiring plan, each individual in a household will be getting the sum of N1,600 per month, or N53 per day, as he asked what they should do with it.

He said, “Use the money to buy a sachet (pure) water or a cup of boiled groundnut on a daily basis ? And this is the man they claim transformed the economy of Lagos State ? This must be a joke or a more sinister attempt to divert public funds.”

Further talking, Phrank Shaibu argued that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, lacked a clear economic policy apart from taxing Nigerians.
