You were only sanitary inspector, know nothing about economics - Presidency fires back at Atiku

The Presidency has slammed the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Atiku Abubakar, over his economic policy.

It said Atiku’s only qualification before joining the Nigerian Customs Service was as a sanitary inspector.

The Senior Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga said this in a post on his verified X handle.

Onanuga expressed wonder about what Atiku knows about economics.

According to him, Atiku’s only qualification before joining Customs was as a sanitary inspector, adding that he knows nothing about economics.

The statement was made in reaction to Atiku’s recent comments on the economy.

The Presidency said Tinubu’s economic reforms were working and Atiku should not distract Nigerians.

“You know nothing about economics. Atiku Abubakar’s only qualification before joining the Nigerian Customs was as a sanitary inspector. You wonder what he knows about economics,” Onanuga wrote.
