Shehu Sani stated this on Thursday while fielding questions from Journalists at his residence in Kaduna.
Sani who backed the removal of fuel subsidy, explained that there was a need to put the subsidy funds on the table to tell Nigerians what is being done with it.
He said the fuel subsidy funds could be used to build roads, educational and, health sectors so that every Nigerian can benefit from it.
“I think that government should not pay any individual subsidy funds but use the resources for things we can see and benefit from,” he said.
He added that there was a dramatic and revolutionary change in the oil sector under the administration of Mele Kyari where oil is been discovered and exploited in the North, adding that oil theft in the Niger Delta has also drastically reduced.
Commenting on insecurity, Shehu Sani said that President Tinubu has started on a good footing with the sacking and appointments of service chiefs.
He said the appointment of the Chief of Defense Staff, Secretary General of the Federation, and the National Security Advisers, saying all of them are square peck in a square hole.
“Terrorists in the last eight years, they’ve turned regions in a part of Nigeria into a killing hub, adding elements of Iswap and Bandits are still holding territories to ransom killing and kidnapping innocent Nigerians.
“The Government of President Mohamadu Buhari has spent $20 million in the name of security and defense and has nothing to show for it,” he said.
He maintained that the present service Chiefs have no excuse but to protect Citizens and the territorial integrity of Nigeria.
“Our country must be salvaged and put on track for sustainable development and peaceful coexistence of our people,” he said.
