The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has criticized ARISE Television anchor Rufai Oseni for his remarks against the current administration.

Oseni had shared an article accusing President Tinubu of being the mastermind of Nigeria’s rising debt profile.

Reacting to the post, Onanuga described Rufai as an economic illiterate, stressing that all nations borrow money and that Tinubu’s government borrowing has not breached the limit.

He wrote, “You are an economic illiterate! All sovereign nations borrow money.Our borrowing has not breached the limit by the rule.”

Responding to Onanuga, Rufai wrote, “Dear Egbon Bayo, you don’t need to abuse me and call me economic illiterate because I stated Nigerias debt! Challenge me with facts.

“Love and respect despite your abuses. you don’t need to abuse me. We all respect you as our Baba B. You can make your point without abuses. Why call me an economic illiterate because I stated facts!

“Kindly provide a contrary fact that Nigeria is not owing 152 trillion.”
