 Welcome back to The Breakfast in Plostivia, Africa. Our final conversation this morning in just a few minutes would be on the President, Mohamed Abu Hari, making new appointments just a year and a little bit more before the end of the current administration's tenure. Let's begin this morning with Dr. Abu Bakr Yunus Ahmed, who is a member representing Yamato Deba federal constituency in the House of Representatives. Good morning, Dr. Yunus Ahmed. Thanks for joining us. Good morning. Great to have you on The Breakfast. A few people have basically shared their disappointment with the appointment of new persons, mostly with the appointment of Professor Doin Salami in the President's Economic Team. A lot of new appointments that the President has made. A lot of people have described it as a little late and may not have any effect in changing Nigeria's economic story or any other story. Do you agree with that or do you think that the President has made the right choices here? Well, good morning to you. Thanks for that question. The appointment is not rather late. When you look at the credentials of Dr. Doin Salami, you will observe that the President has made a good choice by appointing him. And he could be likened to putting, you know, a spare text in a spare form. Dr. Doin, when you look at his degree and the contributions he has given, has proven himself to be a renowned economy. Somebody that has been from the academic, he has conducted a lot of researches, and he has been in a pandemic of the Nigerian economy by virtue that he served on the committee in the Central Bank. So he is not somebody that is not conversant with the trends and the economic trends. During his peak at the Central Bank, he has contributed a lot to stabilize the economy. For quite some time, the dollar has been relatively sustained at the foreign exchange rate. And during the COVID 2020 and some most part of 2021, we enter a session with the economy recovery plan put in place. Hopefully, some advice from Dr. Doin Salami, Nigeria sustained a kind of economic growth that gets us out of the economic crisis we enter. As we are talking to you now, for about five consecutive quarters, we have sustained growth and we are out of the session. Secondly, when you look at the inflationary trends from 17.17 due to the effect of the COVID-19, it has been treatment down to about 15, which is hidden to about 15 percent. So credit goes to Doin, and it was this crisis that the President saw in him that he brought him to head the Economic Advisory Council and asked him to take charge. And believe you me, Dr. Doin could do magic because the world bank assumptions, and when you look at the IMF projections, Nigeria is the right track. And with Dr. Doin's position, I think too many things can be done. So Dr. Doin's appointment has come in a good time, at least better than never. Okay, so with Dr. Doin, Salami, what economic achievement should we be looking at, you know, come 2022? I mean, what should we be looking at? What do you think that he's going to bring on the table in terms of, you know, the debt rate that Nigeria is actually currently involved with? And also, you know, the inflation rate amongst all the economic issues that we're faced with, what should we expect as Nigerians? Well, at least I have talked about the inflationary trend, the contribution that we are expecting from Doin. Like I say, the inflation is going to sustain the coming down of the inflation. Like I said from 17 now, we are almost 15 going down to 14, and it will continue like that. Second thing, with the global trend, when you look at it economically, what we expected from Dr. Doin with the 2022 budget and from the indices of the 2020 implementation, our debt despite a high profile, at least the most important thing we have been purchasing our bills. And for about three years to still 2016, when Muhammad Buhari took into power, the debt statistic has been 100% every year. That is year on year bills. So with that, and with the monetary policies being put in the CVS, which Dr. Doin is in tandem, we will now just support it on the general economic overview to sustain the growth until we are relatively comfortable. Dr. Yunus Ahmad, we of course, unfortunately, we would have to end the conversation here. But it's a good place to start and we will continue this discussion and bring in other angles concerning these appointments on a later date. Thank you very much for joining us this morning, even though very briefly and wish you a great day ahead. Thank you very much. It's obviously a very important conversation and we will bring it back to speak about the effects Doin Salami will have and of course the new appointments that the current administration of President Muhammad Buhari has made lately.
