Pay attention on economy – PDP tells new ministers.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged the newly sworn ministers to quickly settle down, move fast and focus on the economy.

This is even as the party said the portfolios assigned to the ministers did not inspire confidence that there is indeed any change being introduced in the system.

In a statement by PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh on Wednesday, said that the present administration has so far played heavily on dramatizing routine procedures and processes, which was even glaring in the prolonged swearing-in ceremony of the ministers.

The party noted that with the inauguration, the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration should fully resolve the issues on the actual position of the nation’s economy and the direction therein.

“Whereas President Muhammadu Buhari had announced that the nation is bankrupt to the extent he cannot pay his ministers, his new Minister of Information had contradicted him directly by stating how the government is buoyant and ready to deploy $2.5 billion infrastructure fund, saved N1.4 trillion with another N2.5 trillion ready as special intervention fund, which goes to say that the country is not actually broke.”
