He added; ” he signed an undertaking and I think he did his best” When asked about how he would go about fulfilling his promises to Nigerians, Buhari replied; “I wouldn’t have made the promises if I don’t know how to go about it. We identified a number of problems that is insecurity in the country which everybody knows; the lack of employment which is the situation of the economy generally by corruption and corruption itself” “This three fundamental problems, Nigerians know it and we are asking Nigerians for their cooperation and they should’t expect miracles to happen a couple of months later because the situation took so many years which is 16 years of the ruling party’s rule of this country”. www.naij.com/414325-video-buhari-talks-boko-haram.html |
