Presidency Faults The Economist, Says Buhari Tackling Identified Threats to Nation’s Stability

The Presidency on Sunday evening formally reacted to last week’s anti-Nigeria cover of The Economist magazine saying the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration has been busy addressing to the four identified threats to the nation’s stability including terrorist attacks, kidnapping, herders-farmers clashes and activities of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra in the South East zone.

“The Economist is also accurate to state that they have come to a head under President Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, administration. Yet they do so, because for so long, under previous administrations, whether military or democratic, tough decisions have been ducked, and challenges never fully met – with the effect of abetting these dangers and allowing them all to fester and grow.

“The forms may have altered, and the threats posed by each may have waxed and waned, but what has been constant is that administration after administration since independence – whether military or democratic – none sought to fully address these threats to Nigeria as President Buhari’s government does now.

“In the South-East, IPOB – which the Economist rightly describes as “delusional” – the arrest and present trial of the terrorist leader of the group is the beginning of its demise. The President’s administration is redoubling efforts to have IPOB rightfully designated as a terrorist group by our allies outside of Nigeria – an act which will collapse their ability to transact gains from crime and extortion in foreign currencies.

He's made, we are counting days, 1 year 7 months remaining and you bunch of failures will disappear into jails. Let's see those who brought whether they can bring your types back

Buhari, an ethnic champion and extremist cannot manage our diversity like the past administrations, that is why these problems are so glaring as if they have not been there before.
