The president was quoted as making this comment by his media aide, Femi Adesina when he received the Governance Support Group at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Friday.
He said, “Some of the things I saw here were unbelievable. I still shudder and wonder how a country can survive under such abuses.
“It is only by an act of God that we survived.
“I want you to maintain your steadfastness. We have gone through the worst of the times. We lost elections three times and I learnt a lot along the way.’
Buhari told his supporters that he was aware of the personal risks and investments that brought in the All Progressives Congress-led administration.
The President stressed that the long-suffering, commitment and sacrifices of all his supporters over the years will be remembered by posterity.
He added, “I can never forget your sacrifices and I am grateful for all. You never gave up when things were bleak, and we needed to survive. I can’t express my gratitude enough.
“In spite of the environment you found yourself, you kept believing and pushing. Some of you were really exposed to risks. My consolation is that you voluntarily threw in your lot with me.
“Some of you exposed yourself so much, and I knew it. I urge you to still stick to your principled ways of doing things and our country will be the better for it,’’ he said.
That is my president talking! Long life to BABA mu!
ReplyDeletelong life to the Federal Republic of Nigeria!
awon wailing wailers over to u
I'm just amazed at how you, the educated one has been able to convince yourself that this old bigot called Buhari, a man that can't even operate a computer is the one to lead a complex country like Nigeria out of the present quagmire. The earlier u realize that Nigeria is a failed country, the better.
DeleteBuhari has absolutely nothing but hate and nepotism to offer.
Yes, long live the president.
DeleteAnnoymous go and kill yourself.
That is my president.more wisdom and strength.God be with you and continue doing the good works you have started.
ReplyDeleteWith all due respect, president Buhari should go and nyash down, face his work and see how he can take Nigeria out of this mess instead of his administration's constant press release or are we all going to be subjected to this till 2019? Na wah!

ReplyDeleteHas Buhari ever wondered where the likes of Tinubu, Fashola, Amaechi, Oshomole, Okorocha & co got the money to sponsor his campaign?
ReplyDeleteCan someone pls tell me how many people have been prosecuted, convicted, and sent to jail because of Buhari's anti corruption crusade?
And the hunger and fuel scarcity we're seeing now is unbelievable. It has never been this bad.
