But he said he don't care about exchange rate cox he won't pay wages in dollar?

Good news.

It will lead to the naira strengthening against the dollar in few days

Emergency loan, epileptic economy.
This one will just save the naira for two weeks and the mumu government will start begging for another loan.

The problem with Tinubu's istration is the same malfeasance that has plagued most of the past istrations in Nigeria.......blatant corruption, blatant tribalism and economic illiteracy...............when Peter Obi was shouting that Nigeria should become productive...APC urchins poopooed his submission but the truth is that he was correct! What did Buhari do to wreck the economy,the sahelian mumu borrowed 50 billion dollars and printed 60 billion naira,encouraged his fellow sahelian slave raiders to cut a path of terror across the productive and agrarian foodbasket of the nation.......even moving their terror to the food producing zones of the south! Today food and petrol prices headline inflation........Tinubu needs to isolate these 2 key components of headline inflation from core inflation figures and tackle them separately.......................fore core inflation instead of wasting 3billioon dollars on defending the naira( a vain task) he should identify serious local manufacturers and find out how government can help them crank up production in the short term!

For headline inflation like food price indices governement has to crack down on fulani banditry in our food zones, same fulani savagery also led to the formation of non state security outfits like ESN..........even if the army has to use mercenaries to achieve that! Increased food production will bring down prices!

Another looting... leading to more debts
