A stalwart of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and former Edo State governorship aspirant, Mr. Kenneth Imansuaghon, has expressed confidence that the presidential aspiration of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar offers what he described as a credible pathway to economic recovery
Imansuaghon argued that the planned reopening of Nigeria’s land borders would stimulate commerce, attract investment and ease the economic hardship confronting millions of Nigerians.
Speaking from the United States, Imansuaghon alleged that the economic reforms introduced by the administration of President Bola Tinubu have imposed severe hardship on citizens, increased the cost of living and weakened the productive sector.
He argued that many Nigerians had lost their means of livelihood as businesses continue to struggle under the prevailing economic conditions.
Imansuaghon said Atiku’s proposal to reopen Nigeria’s borders with neighbouring countries, including Benin Republic, Niger, Chad and Cameroon, would revive cross-border trade, expand economic opportunities and improve the movement of goods across the West African sub-region.
