Legal luminary and elder statesman, Chief Mike Ahamba (SAN), has said that the Nigerian economy is in a “deadly mess.”
Ahamba, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria with over 50 years of legal practice experience, stated this in an interview with a national newspaper.
He said: “What I’m going to say is not political, but pure social reality. The economy of Nigeria is in a deadly mess.
“I’m saying this because I’ve had the opportunity to communicate with various people of different levels, there is danger people are hopelessly, economically down.
“When the economy is beginning to haunt people like us, you can imagine the man on the street.
“So, without any pretence, I want to advise the president and those working with him to be realistic, it takes a man to say I’m sorry, it takes a fool to walk away, all those telling the president that things are okay and could be managed, I hope this country does not explode because the saying that a hungry man is an angry man is older than I am.”
