Nigeria Will Be Great Again – Buhari
September 2, 2016
PRESIDENT Muhamamdu Buhari on Thursday, September 1, assured Nigerians that despite the current hardships facing the country, Nigeria would be great again under his watch.
Buhari gave the assurance in Osogbo on Thursday, September 1, at the inauguration of the Osogbo Government High School built by the administration of Governor Rauf Aregbesola.
The president said that he and members of his government are aware of the hardships Nigerians are going through, saying that ‘change’ was aimed at restoring the nation on the path of integrity and prosperity.
He, therefore, appealed to Nigerians to be patient and persevere while promising that pains would soon give way to development.
He said his administration was working hard to avoid the mistakes of the last administration in tackling insecurity and corruption and to revamp the economy which was badly affected by the drop in the price of oil.
The president said: “We promised Nigerian people positive and progressive change during our campaign. We are not and shall not be deterred from that noble undertaking.
“But as we have learnt from history, change has never been attained by any nation on a bed of roses, but rather, through patience, perseverance and steadfastness.
“We are quite aware of the pains and inconveniences that have been the lot of the citizenry in the past one year as we strive to faithfully implement our programmes in fulfilment of our change agenda.
“We are however comforted by the real change and progress we have made in fighting corruption and restoring integrity to government; providing security for lives and property; and positioning the government for effectiveness and especially deregulating the oil sector.
“We must also not forget the fiscal discipline that has now characterised government business at all levels. This indeed is how it should be and we are determined to introduce and implement actions and measures that will entrench the change mantra in our individual lives just as we are doing in curtailing excessive waste and rent seeking in governance.
“We are determined to remain on track as we strive to deliver to rescue the country from past mistakes in fulfilment of our promise of improving the conditions of our people and making Nigeria a prosperous country.”
