President Olusegun Obasanjo has called on leaders to stop squandering the nation's commonwealth and be prepared to make sacrifices in the coming year – 2016.
Obasanjo, in his Christmas message after a church service on Friday, admitted that the country's resources had been squandered, saying it's time for leaders to adjust to reality of the current economic gloom.
His words: "We have had downs in our economy before, we have risen up again. We have made money; we have squandered it. If we are sensible at all, there must be an end to squandering."
According to The Cable, Obasanjo said that the President Muhammadu Buhari's administration had warned Nigerians about the poor economic situation but he still called on the government to do more.
He said, "I still believe that there are still areas of government that are not serious enough to make us feel that what is being said is something that would concern all of us. It would be very difficult for the people of this country to see that certain arms of government are living in luxury, while the government is asking the ordinary people to continue to make sacrifice.
"I believe that all arms of governments and the private sector should realise that if we are going to shorten the time of this hardship, if we are going to have any cushioning effects for the ordinary people, then there would have to be sacrifices made by those who have to make more sacrifice."
