Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, says some people will blame President Muhammadu Buhari if they can’t get pregnant.
Gatekeepers News reports that Amaechi urged Nigerians to stop blaming the President Muhammadu Buhari for all the challenges witnessed in the country.
Amaechi said this on a Channels Television’s programme titled, ‘Hard Copy’,
He argued that Buhari was being blamed for even things that didn’t concern him.
“The point is we all blame the government. Like the President would say, if tomorrow you are unable to get pregnant, you will blame Buhari,” he said.
Ameachi noted that the Buhari’s administration had diversified the economy and halted the importation of rice.
Ameachi added, “When you talk about bandits and all these people that kill. It is a question about poverty. And that poverty didn’t start in this regime. Don’t forget that oil was sold at $110, $114, $115 per barrel. When this government came into power, oil fell to $28 per barrel and since then it has not gone above $80 per barrel.
“As former chairman of the governors’ forum, I was told by the security in a meeting chaired by the former President including the former minister of finance that at every point in time, the government must leave money behind in case Nigeria goes to war that would last for six months.
“By the time we came, they didn’t leave money behind that could last us for three weeks. And I was speaking at that time as the chairman of the governors’ forum.”
