According to the All Progressives Congress (APC) spokesman, Obi’s promise to shift Nigeria from an economy of consumption to production is hollow and fatal.
He argued that no economy can run solely on production as a vibrant economy will ride on the twin horses of consumption and production; therefore, what Obi is projecting is contradictory.
This online media platform gathered Onanuga made the submission in a statement titled ‘No Peter Obi, You Cannot Shift Emphasis From Consumption To Production.’
He said: “One of the mantras often mouthed by Mr. Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, is the promise to “shift emphasis from consumption to production”. In his manifesto, he says he will do this by running a production-centered economy that is driven by an agrarian revolution and export-oriented industrialisation.
“I doubt if Peter Obi and his moronic followers have ever for one second reflected on this mantra as it is self-contradictory and meaningless.
“A vibrant economy will ride on the twin horses of consumption and production. It cannot do without one, for it is basic economics 101 to know that production happens in expectation of consumption.
“Both concepts are natural corollaries, consumption following production.
“What I guess Obi means is that he will shift emphasis from ‘import dependency’ to local production of goods.
