President Muhammadu Buhari has
told Nigerians in the diaspora that his administration has done well in the
areas of security, economy and anti-corruption.
Buhari, who stated this during an
interactive session with a select group of Nigerian professionals based in the
United States and Canada, said his administration had delivered within the
available resources.
The president explained that Boko
Haram had been decimated, adding that it was most important for the country to
be secured but regretted that the terrorist group was still targeting soft
spots using girls for suicide bombings.
Buhari declared that “Boko Haram
is not about religion but a pure terrorist group”, adding that “is why we are
dealing with them”.
On corruption, he regretted that
Nigeria made so much money from 1999 to 2014 when the price of crude oil per
barrel was above 100 dollars while Nigeria produced around 1.2 million barrels
per day.
“Calculate 2.2 million barrels
times 100 dollars times 16 years; but everything went down the drain,”
emphasising that “if Nigeria does not tame corruption, corruption will tame
Nigeria”.
I concur the number one man in my country
