President Muhammadu Buhari has said the Peoples Democratic Party, which ruled Nigeria for 16 years, did not do anything all through its rule. Buhari said this while addressing journalists in Daura, his hometown in Katsina State, on Monday after attending Eid prayers, according to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr. Garba Shehu.
“I want Nigerians to realise that what this government inherited after 16 years of the PDP government was no savings, no infrastructure, no power, no rail, no road and no security,” Buhari stated.
The President, however, argued that within a year, his government was able to crush the then rampaging Boko Haram militants.
He said he had intensified the war against corruption as those who diverted public funds had started returning the money, stressing that his war against corruption was not one-sided.
Buhari added, “Before the elections, we identified three major problems confronting our country. “We first secured the country, for security is key to development. We first dealt with the Boko Haram menace and now, we are dealing with the militants.
“Through the Central Bank of Nigeria and an inter- ministerial committee under the Vice-President, we are working out jobs for graduates.
“We are equally tackling corruption which is a continuous. We are trying our best and we want Nigerians to do their best too.”
The President thanked Nigerians for supporting the Federal Government’s policies, programmes and actions aimed at improving security, revamping the economy and combating corruption.
‘‘We should thank God this year, the reports I’m getting, which are very pleasing, is that we will have a bumper harvest this year,” the President added. Buhari will return to Abuja after the two-day public holiday.
