Tinubu urged to sustain democracy with economic management

Maku stressed the importance of effective economic management for sustaining democracy.

He highlighted the need for President Tinubu to focus on properly managing Nigeria's resources to ensure progress for future generations.

He said:

"Moreover, democracy cannot endure unless we transparently manage Nigeria's resources for the benefit of future generations. "I trust that under the current administration, we are anticipating effective economic management for the country's progress. This is essential."

Maku called on Tinubu to implement economic policies to relieve Nigerians and stabilise the economy.

The two-time minister particularly emphasised the importance of managing monetary policies to prevent the devaluation of the naira, which affects production and importation in the country.

He said:

"The president must carefully evaluate these policies. If the value of the naira keeps declining, it will lead to a halt in production within Nigeria. "As a nation that imports capital goods, we rely on imported machinery for any substantial development. We do not manufacture machinery domestically."

Maku also pointed out that a stable naira would attract more companies to Nigeria, boosting the economy and creating jobs.

He said:

"If the naira's value improves, many companies will be attracted to Nigeria, and I believe many already are. The president should closely examine these policies. I am confident he has the experience and capability to unite Nigerians."
