President Muhammadu Buhari On Monday in Abuja said he would
make police and judiciary more efficient in his second term as he also
criticised outgoing Senate president Bukola Saraki and speaker Yakubu Dogara
for delaying budget passage during his first term.
Buhari said this on Monday in Abuja in an NTA special
interview.
He described as unpatriotic the action of the two principal
officers of the National Assembly over the years.
He rated both Saraki and Dogara, “very very low” over the
budget delays.
“I told Saraki and Dogara that by holding the budget for 7
months, you’re not hurting me, you’re hurting Nigerians? In terms of
patriotism, I rate them very very low,” Buhari said on Monday night.
“ I feel very bad indeed. NASS to hold the Budget for seven
months,“ he said.
Buhari said he would reform both the judiciary and the
police to ensure effective administration.
“Police and judiciary are to be in the frontline of law and
order. They should be able to know the offender in their communities.
“What the government needs to do is to provide the basic
need. People should try to expose criminals in their communities, “ he said.
Buhari hailed Nigerians for their love, respect, and trust in
him.
He commended them for finding him worthy to rule for the
second term in the office.
Buhari linked the secret of love, respect, and trust he
enjoyed from Nigerian citizens to his hard work to survive in life.
He further promised that he would continue to do his best
towards national security.
He noted that his coming to power in 2015 was a relief to
North-East of the country because there was a reduction of activities of Boko
Haram in the region.
He said the administration had ensured food security by
making fertiliser available and affordable for the farmers.
He said the present administration had worked tirelessly to
recover looted money from banks in Europe and U.S.
He explained that the recovery was a gradual process by
investigation.
He said government was intensifying effort to fix roads,
improve power and other infrastructure to make the business booming as well as
encourage foreigners to invest in the country
