The former governor also questioned the competence of Tinubu's cabinet members, suggesting that many lack the capacity to hold their offices. He attributed the government's poor economic decisions to this lack of capacity and expertise.
Former Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam, has expressed his doubts about the ability of the President Bola Tinubu-led government to improve Nigeria's economic situation. In a recent interview on Channels Television's Newsnight program, Suswam stated that the current administration's economic policies indicate a lack of understanding and capacity to address the country's economic challenges.
Suswam, who also served as a Senator representing Benue North-East Senatorial District in the 9th National Assembly, criticized the government's decision to remove fuel subsidies, float the currency, and increase interest rates. He argued that these policies would lead to increased inflation, transportation costs, and suffering for the average Nigerian.

Suswam further criticized the government's budget, calling it "not implementable" and expressing concerns about the large deficit and unrealistic financing plans. He warned that the government's reliance on borrowing and printing money would lead to further currency depreciation and economic hardship for Nigerians.
In conclusion, Suswam expressed his belief that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has the resources and expertise to restore Nigeria's economic fortunes and bring back the "good old days" of economic growth and stability.
