Ohanaeze Ndigbo chieftain Okechukwu Isiguzoro has urged President Bola Tinubu to launch an investigation into the previous administration of ex-President Muhammadu Buhari. Isiguzoro emphasized the need for this probe to prevent further deterioration of Nigeria’s economy.
In a statement titled “Urgent action required: Probe Buhari, Ministers, and close aides to save Nigeria’s agonizing economy,” Isiguzoro stressed the importance of examining the reckless external borrowing and its lack of visible projects during Buhari’s tenure.
Isiguzoro called on President Tinubu to take decisive action, stating, “It is time to officially initiate an executive probe into former President Buhari’s administration and the severe mismanagement of Nigeria’s economy from 2015-2023.”
He highlighted the urgency of addressing the alleged re-looting of recovered assets by Buhari’s ministers, close aides, and family members, stating that this has contributed to the suffering endured by Nigerians.
Isiguzoro emphasized the need for accountability, stating, “To prevent the spread of economic hardship protests, temporarily halted by the African Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, President Tinubu must initiate an inescapable comprehensive probe of Buhari’s administration.”
He also called for the return of any misappropriated funds, stating, “These individuals must be compelled to return all the ‘re-looted’ loot, as this signifies the initial step toward Nigeria’s economic recovery.”
