The Presidency has reacted after Nigerian citizens flooded World Bank social media handles to beg the organization to stop giving Nigeria loans.
Recall that Nigerians flooded the World Bank social media
pages to ask the institution to deny the country loans.
Speaking on Arise Television on Thursday, the Special
Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, said,
“This is the eve of election, and so, it’s difficult to tell if the citizens
who flooded the social media page of the World Bank asking that Nigeria be
denied the right to borrow are opposition members.
“Whether they are opposition or not, government has the duty
to execute the provision of the constitution.
“In leadership, you listen to people but when it comes to
carrying out your responsibility, you do that in accordance with the law.
“As a a government, you are going to react to a people who
on social media said do not borrow Nigeria. What if you have another set of
people saying go and borrow? How are you going to move as a leader?
“Leadership is not guided by certain things that do not have
the backing of law. World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, IMF, and
experts in the field said our borrowing so far is still in order.”
