President Muhammadu Buhari has said that
Nigeria will be great again in spite of its current
challenges.
Buhari made the statement at the grand finale
of the All Progressives Congress Edo
governorship election campaign in Benin on
Tuesday.
He said that just as the country was almost out
of its security challenges, it would surmount its
current economic difficulties as well.
The president urged Nigerian youths to reflect
on the statement he made 30 years ago that
“Nigerians have no other country other than
Nigeria.”
Earlier, Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos State,
who is also the Chairman of Edo Election
Campaign Council, said the president’s presence
in Edo was a pointer to the political and
economic success recorded in the state.
Ambode said that Edo had witnessed
developmental progress in the almost eight
years of the administration of Gov. Adams
Oshiomhole.
He said that the Oshiomhole administration had
been responsive and committed to the
yearnings of the people of the state.
“In view of this, it is clear that continuity is the
sure way to greater progress,” he said.
He also said that the APC candidate, Mr Godwin
Obaseki, had the expertise to turn the state
around if elected in the election scheduled for
Saturday.
