Ahead of May 29 inauguration, an economic expert has listed things the incoming administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu must do to turn around the economy.
Tilewa Adebajo, the Chief Executive Officer of the CFG Advisory, disclosed this on Wednesday during an interview.
Adebajo said Tinubu must ensure credible people are leading the leadership of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Ministries of Finance, Trade and Investments.
He stated that Tinubu must correct the misalignment of trade, monetary and fiscal policies to succeed.
“We have to look at the Ministry of Finance; we have to look at the Ministry of Trade and Investments. It is somehow overlooked by having 18 critical parastatals directly impacting trade and investment.
“It is a misalignment of trade, monetary, and fiscal policies. You need to restructure those three institutions and put the right people in place. There is a need for coordination between these three institutions.
“The Central Bank of Nigeria Act has been violated; the fiscal responsibility act has been violated, and we need to restore that credibility.
“If he (Tinubu) can put all the proper structure in place and the right people, he would likely succeed in the economy,” he said.
