I see nothing important in this. just mere jamboree, my opinion though
The G7 group of industrialized nations has resolved to support President Muhammadu Buhari.
A statement issued yesterday by the Senior Special Assistant (Media and Publicity) to the President, Garba Shehu, said that “at the end of the presentation he made on Monday, the G7 leaders said to him that they recognised the President’s massive amount of confidence and expectations behind his government.
“They acknowledged him as having emerged from an election adjudged to be the freest in the country’s electoral history, but regretted the severe handicaps his new government has to face from the outset.
“They told President Buhari that they took cognizance of the fact of the several handicaps, including the lack of resources, leaving him with a government over-stretched in capacity, itself riddled with mismanagement.
“The G-7 also noted that the country’s army lacked training and equipment with little or no will to engage.
“In recognition of the fact that the security threat of the Boko Haram had gone beyond Nigeria, equally affecting other countries in the region, the G7 conceded that no one country can tackle it alone.
“They expressed warm sentiments towards the Nigerian leader and praised him for reaching out to the country’s neighbours and the group of industrialised nations within a week of his takeover of government.
“In view of the seriousness he has shown in tacking this problem, the group pledged that they would “engage, cooperate and collaborate” with President Buhari’s government in tackling the serious problems that Nigeria faces.
“They left it to President Buhari to come up with the specifics on his requirements, assuring that they would study the requirements either individually or collectively and offer help. They asked to know the nature and the scale of the problems in order to know the nature and the scale of the assistance they will provide. Suffice it to say that they assured President Buhari that ‘Nigeria will find a partner in the G7.” Buhari, who had the privilege of being the first to address the G7 among the invited presidents and prime ministers, was warmly received at the summit.

yes, I think PMB should settle down for business and stop frolicking around the foreign nations in the name of help. Imagine the outcome of the over hyped invitation to G7 is just to recognize the election that brought him in. what any president/leader could sent even via phone. Only to send him back to Nigerian to go and prepare a request, are they suggesting that he doesn't have a clue of what his nation needs

Seconded

To crown it all, the wrong footing of the APC led FG is largely due to PMB unavailaibility to handle situations , these has led to the Senate president addressing the VP as a mere commissioner but went ahead contested and emerged the SP while PMB detained and humiliated his party at ICC in an endless wait for the leader of their party. What do we say of a whole country without key appointments like the SFG, chief of staff etc for almost two weeks. Getting power is not enough wielding power is vital
