Yemi-Osinbajo-Nigeria-VPThe Economic Management Team has been considering several policy options and measures to urgently reform and revitalise the economy, a presidency official said on Monday.

Spokesman for Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Laolu Akande, said that some of the measures may require legislative amendments and presidential orders.

He said that such inputs would enable the Executive Arm of Government move quickly in implementing the economic reform plans.

“As far as I know, this has not been passed on to the President, the Federal Executive Council or the Legislative arm of government,” he said.

This is coming a day after some Nigerians expressed their feelings about the policies of the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari in a poll.

Most of the voters said they were confused about the policy thrust of the government.

The Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun, has said that the government was pumping money into the economy to revamp it.
