A former governor of Kano State, Ibrahim Shekarau, on Friday, charged President Bola Tinubu-led government to admit its mistakes and review its policies.

The Nigerian economy has been affected by some policies like the removal of fuel subsidies and the floating of the naira, implemented by the Tinubu government.

To address the issues, Shekarau said Tinubu and his team should have a review of its economic policies and admit to mistakes where necessary.

Shekarau, while speaking on Channels TV Politics Today, said, “As we say in the teaching job, the best learning is when you learn through your mistakes.

“Let the government sit back and identify: ‘What areas have you made some errors? What mistakes have you made? What pronouncements have been made in error? What policies were put in place that are really breeding this kind of crisis of hunger and high cost of living and inflation [food] of 40 percent’?

“Admit there are some wrongs that have been committed; some errors and probably certain things have been taken for granted.

“This is the time to sit back and address them.”
