‘Be fair when criticising my government, we have made progress’ – Buhari to Nigerians

President Muhammadu Buhari has called on Nigerians especially the elites to be fair in their criticism of his administration by looking at the situation of the country before the assumption of the All Progressives Congress-led government.

A statement by the presidency seen by Nigeria Defender noted that President Buhari made the call on Thursday, January 14 when he received a delegation from the Nigeria Christian Pilgrims Commission.

Buhari said; “Those criticising the administration should be fair in terms of reflecting on where we were before we came, where we are now and what resources are available to us and what we have done with the limited resources.”

Recall that President Buhari promised to reorganise Nigeria’s security architecture in 2021 during his new year message to Nigerians on Friday, January 1.

The president, however, noted that his government needs to be more proactive and preemptive in ensuring that such incidents do not become a norm.

He said his government is fully aware of its responsibility to protect the lives and property of all Nigerians, adding that they will not relent in learning and adapting to changing threats to national security and civic wellbeing.
