Nigeria’s political atmosphere has heated up after former Vice President Atiku Abubakar strongly criticized President Bola Tinubu over plans to secure a fresh $516 million loan.
Atiku warned that continued borrowing could worsen the country’s rising debt burden and place more pressure on future generations.
He accused the government of depending too heavily on loans instead of focusing on production, investment, and policies that can strengthen the economy.
