President Muhammadu Buhari has
revealed that he wants Nigerians to remember him as a leader that met a
vandalised Nigeria, and reset the buttons on almost all areas of national life
— political, social, economic, local and international image.
According to Buhari, his
government would not rest on its oars until the rots created in the nation’s
political space by preceding government were cleared.
He made this points in an
interview published in the current edition of African Economy.
Buhari said he met a vandalized
Nigeria upon assumption of office in 2015 and has been working hard to fix it
before exit from office.
He said, “We are doing our best,
and we will continue to do so. God is kind to us, giving us good rains and rich
harvest for two consecutive years, and very soon, we would not have cause to
import grains.
“We would be remembered as the
government that put Nigeria on the path of food self-sufficiency. We would feed
ourselves and export food, as well. The economy will be diversified and would
be resilient to crash in oil prices in the international market.
“I will love this administration
to be remembered as one that met a vandalised Nigeria, and reset the buttons on
almost all areas of national life — political, social, economic, local and
international image.
“I also want this government to
be remembered as one that cleaned up the political space, especially in the
area of elections.
“We would bequeath clean
electioneering to the country, secure our land within and without, and give Nigerians
a pride of place locally and internationally. We will do our best, offer honest
leadership, and surely God will crown the efforts.”
