Daily Independent reports the president as stating this when he received leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Southeastern part of the country at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. The report said the president thanked the leaders for their patriotism, sacrifices and support for the peace and stability of the country just as he also commended them for acknowledging the laudable and consistent efforts of his administration to restore Nigeria to the position of eminence.

“I am very pleased with your patriotism and consistency in supporting our administration. You are always going around explaining things even at the risk of abuse. “I want you to know that I have not forgotten the efforts and sacrifices you have made in the successes I have achieved in my position and I appreciate what you are doing for the stability of our country and the future of our children and our grandchildren.


“I assure you that whatever I try to do, I will do it with a clear conscience and I’ll do the best I can do for all Nigerians,” he said. Speaking at the meeting, Emma Eneukwu, who is the national vice chairman of the southeast APC, thanked Buhari for helping the region with some projects.
