He pointed out that despite Venezuela having the largest oil reserves and a smaller population, it has struggled economically. This comparison highlights the dangers Nigeria faces if it continues to follow external guidance without accounting for its unique circumstances.In an interview with Arise TV, Ndume stated, “The issues we face in this country are self-inflicted. The World Bank and IMF play a role in this.
