Buhari Is The Best President Nigeria Have So far – Lai Mohammed

Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the Minister of information and Culture, has boasted that the current Adminstration has achieved more than any other (Administration) in the history of Nigeria, since taking over power from PDP in 2015 Buhari mark six years in office.

While addressing the media to mark the sixth Anniversary of Buhari Administration the Minister announced that the government is ready to publicise it’s achievements to set the record straight.

Mohammed said: “Never in the history of our country has any administration done so much with so little as the Buhari Administration has done.

“It’s easy to forget now, but when this administration came into office in 2015, the price of crude oil, which provides 80 per cent of Nigeria’s budgetary revenues and 95 per cent of foreign exchange earnings, dropped drastically and, along with it, the fund available to the government. It is therefore monumental that this administration has achieved so much despite the paucity of fund.

“I want to state emphatically that while more attention has been given, especially in recent times, to the security challenges facing our country; those challenges are fleeting and will not define the legacy of President Muhammadu Buhari.

“Let me say that President Buhari’s legacy is assured, and will be defined by his massive achievements in office. The roads, rails, bridges, mass housing, port development, improvement in power supply and other massive infrastructural development will last for generations to come and will help propel economic growth and national development,” the minister boasted.

Mohammed however regretted that some mischievous elements were claiming
that the administration had not done anything despite the clear evidence
of strong performance with little funds at its disposal.

The
minister said, “In spite of our best efforts, the naysayers have
continued to say they have not seen what this administration has
achieved. They have continued to deny the obvious by pretending that
these achievements are not real.

“Even when they have travelled
on the new standard gauge rail from Abuja to Kaduna, Lagos to Ibadan,
and Itakpe-Ajaokuta-Warri, they still deny that any progress has been
made in modernizing the country’s rail infrastructure. They travel
through the ultra-modern airport terminals in Abuja and Enugu, yet they
deny any progress has been made in modernizing our airports”.

The
Buhari administration came into office on May 29, 2015 and is in the
second year of the final term of eight years with the government being
confronted with rising security challenges across the land, threatening
to overshadow the achievements recorded.
