Buhari Has Failed On His Promises To Nigerians – PDP

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Chief Sunny Onuesoke has come out to say that Nigerians are yet to feel Buhari‘s impact as president.

He recently revealed this while addressing journalists in Abuja, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, it is very unfortunate that the All Progressives Congress APC-led Federal Government has failed in delivering on its promises to the people, despite everything Buhari pledged to do.

He added that Buhari promised that Nigerian refineries will work in 100 percent capacity, and no Nigerian will travel out for medical treatment among other lofty promises, but that has not been the case at all.

His words, “During the campaign that brought President Buhari in, APC promised to reduce fuel pump prices to N45 per litre in the first year of his administration, provide free education at all level, place every graduate on allowance, crush Boko Haram and other insurgencies within three months, and create three million jobs annually.”

“They equally promised that Nigerian refineries will work in 100 percent capacity and no Nigerian will travel out for medical treatment among other lofty promises. Unfortunately, they have not met any of these promises. Rather, the reverse is the case with Nigerians waking up every morning with heart breaking news.”

“No where is safe in the country as insecurity has become the order of the day. Farmers do not go to farm because they are afraid of being abducted by gunmen. This had led to increase of farm products. The highways are not save because either bandits and gunmen are on ground.”

Muhammadu Buhari GCFR (born 17 December 1942) is a Nigerian politician currently serving as the President of Nigeria, in office since 2015. He is a retired major general in the Nigerian Army and previously served as the nation’s head of state from 31 December 1983 to 27 August 1985, after taking power in a military coup d’état. The term Buharism is ascribed to the Buhari military government.

He unsuccessfully ran for the office of president of Nigeria in the 2003, 2007, and 2011 general elections. In December 2014, he emerged as the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress for the March 2015 general elections. Buhari won the election, defeating the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan. This marked the first time in the history of Nigeria that an incumbent president lost to an opposition candidate in a general election. He was sworn in on 29 May 2015. In February 2019, Buhari was re-elected President, defeating his closest rival Atiku Abubakar by over 3 million votes.

Buhari has stated that he takes responsibility for anything over which he presided during his military rule, and that he cannot change the past. He has described himself as a “converted democrat”.

Muhammadu Buhari was born to a Fulani family on 17 December 1942, in Daura, Katsina State, to his father Hardo Adamu, a Fulani chief, and mother Zulaihat. He is the twenty-third child of his father. Buhari was raised by his mother, after his father died when he was about four years old.
