Ezekwesili’s statement is coming on the heels of a claim by Atiku that he was instrumental in designing a private sector revival strategy and opening of the economy for private sector investments while heading the economic management team as Vice President.

Atiku wrote, “As head of the economic management team while I was Vice President, I was instrumental in designing a private sector revival strategy and advocated for the opening of the economy for private sector investments in several sectors. And we made tremendous progress.”
