Obi argued that instead of relying on endless loans, the government should prioritize cutting waste, plugging leaks, and investing in sectors that can sustainably grow the economy.

“You can’t keep borrowing for consumption while neglecting production. What Tinubu is doing today isn’t reform — it’s mortgaging Nigeria’s future,” Obi cautioned.

Obi’s comments have since gone viral, with many Nigerians on social media applauding him for “speaking the truth without fear.” However, some argue that borrowing can be necessary to keep the economy afloat.
