Wole Soyinka calls on Buhari to organize emergency conference to fix challenges facing Nigerian economy

Prof. Wole Soyinka has called on President Buhari to convene an emergency economic conference for experts to brainstorm on the way forward and future of the economy.

The Nobel laureate who made the call on Wednesday when he visited the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed in Abuja, said, ''I agree with those who say the economy is bad. It is obvious and it is so bad. I think the Presidency should call an emergency economic conference where experts will be enlightened. We really need an emergency economic conference, bringing experts together to march the nation forward. I think the economy is not encouraging. Quite frankly, I think most economists will agree with this.''
