Top 3 Things I Will Fix Before Leaving Office – Buhari

The President of Nigeria has promised to fix three top things which has continued to trouble the country for a long time.
     

                               


President Muhammadu Buhari
President Buhari has promised to fix 3 key sectors before leaving office. Buhari while speaking at a meeting with the director, Global Upstream of Shell Oil Company at the State house, Abuja, on Tuesday, October 25, revealed the three key things as:
First and foremost, President Buhari promised to return Nigeria to the “good old days of accountability”. According to him, his administration will make sure all public office holders in Nigeria are held accountable. This has been shown in his continued war against corruption. President Buhari gave the reason for his tough stance on corruption and accountability, saying: “It is only by doing this that investor morale and confidence will return, and the economy will be positioned on the path of growth.”
Again, the president promised to settle the uprising in the Niger Delta region. The president urged them that militancy in the Niger Delta will be a thing of the past soon as his administration is putting structures in place to settle the grievances of the people in the Niger Delta. He commended the Shell company for their continued faith in the Nigerian economy, giving them assurances on some issues of concern raised by the company. He then assured that his government would continue to prioritize security and also dialogue with the stakeholder-communities in the Niger Delta will continue. He also called for continued protection by the Nigerian Navy in view of repeated threats of attack by militants.

Also speaking, the president promised to tackle the issue of electricity. He said the epileptic power supply in Nigeria is a major concern of the government which it plans to improve. This promise is in tandem with the statements he made in March 2016, when he said: “In the three years left for this administration we have given ourselves the target of ten thousand megawatts distributable power. In 2016 alone, we intend to add two thousand megawatts to the national grid.”
Meanwhile, only on, Monday, October 24, President Buhari met with governors who are members of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The meeting took place at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
