Nigerians have been urged to take President Muhammadu Buhari’s pledge to hand over a diversified, home grown economy, and a revamped Armed Forces to the next administration as an article of faith.
According to the Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) in a statement signed by its Chairman Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary Cassidy Madueke, there are already signs that the Buhari administration would leave the country better than it met it.
“After almost seven years in office, Buhari has every reason to tell the Committee of Business, Political, Media and Civil Society leaders that he will hand over ‘a strong repositioned agriculture-led, diversified home-grown economy, stable democracy and revamped armed and security forces’ to the next administration.
“We see it as a statement of fact based on the realities on ground in the sectors the President mentioned recently in his speech to the gathering of public and private sector players in Abuja.
“We are convinced that there will be more activities rather than a decline because most of the ongoing critical infrastructural projects being undertaken by the administration across all sectors would be completed and commissioned before the end of his tenure in 2023,” the statement added.
