How security, economy improved significantly under me – Buhari

Former President Muhammadu Buhari has asserted that Nigeria’s security situation and economy improved significantly during his eight-year administration.

Buhari made this statement on Wednesday while hosting members of the Katsina State Correspondents’ Chapel of the Nigerian Union of Journalists at his residence in Daura, Katsina State.

The former President highlighted that he inherited severe economic and security challenges from the previous Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) administration, which governed for 16 years.

He credited his government’s strategies for successfully mitigating terrorism and alleviating economic difficulties.

He said, “Nigeria’s security and economy improved significantly under my administration compared to what we met in 2015. Things will continue to improve in Nigeria.”

The former President also acknowledged the country’s administrative challenges, noting that only those in positions of power truly understand these obstacles.

In his remarks, the Chairman of the Correspondents’ Chapel, Yusuf Ibrahim-Jargaba, lauded Buhari’s efforts in tackling terrorism, banditry, and other security challenges during his tenure.

Ibrahim-Jargaba also commended the former president’s hard work, dedication, and selfless service, which he believes helped maintain the country’s unity.
