Flashback: What Buhari Promised Nigerians On ‘Insurgency, Poverty and Corruption’

President Muhammadu Buhari during his 2019 campaign, promised that he would not disappoint Nigerians if he won the 2019 Presidential election.

Naija News recalls that President Buhari promised Nigerians in 2019 that he consolidate his first term achievements by tackling poverty, ensuring food security and providing key infrastructure in his “Next Level” government.

The President spoke at the Presidential campaign rally of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital where he promised to sustain and increase the fight against insurgency, poverty and corruption. According to him, the PDP administration spent $16bn on power without providing a regular power supply in the country.

President Buhari had said: “When we came in, the price of crude from over $100, went down to $37 and $38, and then the militants were unleashed on this administration but we have all now overcome those difficulties.”

The President explained that his government had fulfilled the campaign promises it made in 2015.

“Everybody knows where the country was before we came in May 2015 and where we are now and what we have been able to do with the resources available to us,” he had said.
