President Muhammadu Buhari has responded to talks that his
administration has not done anything since he came into office last May,
promising to deliver on his election promises in the next three years.
Speaking
at the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, the President sought understanding
to enable his administration meet expectations.
Mr President
said with the National Assembly’s passage of the budget and savings of
over N3trillion in the Treasury Single Account (TSA), things would begin
to move fast.
Turning to his party leaders,
the President said: “I will like you to continue to make sacrifice. I
know you are being harassed since the election, with people saying that
they have not seen anything on the ground. Well if you have any
explanation that could be accepted, it is that you have three more years
to go.”
The President added: “When we came in after 16 years of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), there were 42 ministries. We reduced
them to 24; removed 21 Permanent Secretaries.
“So, imagine the volume of work …So, you have to appreciate the position we are in”.
