Onanuga said: “Recently, I have been reading several reports about Vision 2010 and Vision 202.
“All those reports showed that our economy has been very efficient, very weak and if we don’t do what we are doing today, one day, we may end up like Somalia.
“Our economy is very weak and what the government is doing today through these reforms is to create an opportunity for us to be a productive economy.
“Nigerians have been consuming and the government has been subsidizing these consumptions.”
