While addressing leaders of the governing All Progressives Congress
(APC), in Abuja today, President Muhammadu Buhari, responded to growing
criticisms of his administration’s performance, saying his government
still has years to go, acknowledging that his government was facing
increasing attacks 10 months after taking office.
The president who spoke in length at the APC’s National Executive
Committee (NEC) meeting at the party's headquarters disclosed his
government’s efforts to strengthen the economy, fight insecurity and
improve the electoral system.
He also defended his frequent trips abroad: "For globetrotting,
sometimes, you need to present your case on personal basis to your
economic colleagues and neighbors. Nothing is better than personal touch
and I believe that we are learning a lot and eventually, the nation
will realize so."
The president concluded by urging party members to accept criticisms in their strides. "I
don’t envy you on the harassment you are going through from your
constituencies. Take it with a lot of determination and we will be all
right, God willing," he said.
