PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has said that his administration will continue to work for the stability of the nation and succeed over the intentions of those who feel they don’t need Nigeria.
He said the crises in some parts of the country were the handiwork of a few people who had resources and influence, saying that they would be identified and dealt with.
This position was declared in a statement signed by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu.
He said, “We need this country. We will continue to work for its stability. I feel that whatever happens, we will continue to make it, and will keep on praying to God so that for those who feel that they don’t need Nigeria, we will succeed over their intentions and actions.
“I am confident that we will eventually convince the small number of people with resource and influence that are a nuisance to this great country. God willing, we will identify them, and deal with them. I am extremely concerned about your constituency like the rest of the country.”
President Buhari has also noted the request for the upgrade and development of infrastructure across the states, assuring that he will do his best to address the situation.
He said this when he received a delegation of Borno/Yobe Elders Forum who paid him a courtesy visit at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
In his remarks, Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State said the leaders were in Abuja to thank the President for the tremendous improvement in their states and to intimate him with some of the prevailing socio-economic conditions.
