Mutfwang Critiques Nigeria's Economic State Under Tinubu
During the formal inauguration of the APC campaign council in Jos, Mutfwang stated that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu inherited a Nigeria that was "tottering on the brink of collapse" in 2023. He noted that the country could not service its external debts and had resorted to printing money to manage the economy.
Mutfwang pointed out that Nigeria's external reserves had plummeted to just over $3 billion from over $40 billion, but now stand at over $50 billion. He also mentioned the challenges Nigerians faced in obtaining petrol, recalling long queues during the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, which he described as "clueless." Mutfwang expressed confidence that Plateau State would support Tinubu in the upcoming elections, predicting a resounding victory on January 16, 2027, and a renewal of his own mandate two weeks later.
