A Public Affairs Analyst, Mr Jerry Chukwueke, says the divide in the Senate is further worsening the signals about stability, economic development and the business of the Nigerian people.

He said Nigerians are bothered about the economy, infrastructure issues, foreign exchange, the international community and not the divide in the Senate.

Speaking as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, Mr Chukwueke noted that Nigerians expected “fresh people with fresh ideas” in the cabinet and not recycling of the regular people.

But he advised that President Buhari should focus on his team and the responsibility that surrounds the office and get on with the business of Nigerians.

He added that the challenges were piling up, such as the power, unemployment, infrastructure, and the private sector in Nigeria. Mr Chukwueke stressed that the private sector was “very weak” and could not be compared with other private sectors around the world.

He advised that the Federal Government should support the private sector, which he said are facing lots of difficulties affecting the long and medium term investments.

In the aspect of anti-corruption, he said Nigerians had expressed worries and had their perceptions and were hoping President Buhari’s administration would reduce corruption.

He added that the case of the former Governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Amaechi, was made peculiar because he was seen as a financier of the campaign of the APC, being the campaign director.
