The Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to President Muhammadu Buhari, Malam Garba Shehu while speaking in Abuja, has said that Buhari's government is working hard to avoid making mistakes of past administrations. He also said there has never been any government in the history of Nigeria that really cared for the masses than Buhari's government. He added that despite the current challenges facing the country, there's hope.
He said, “no government has ever considered the poor like this one. Under the current budget, the administration devoted N500 billion for social intervention programmes for those who need and deserve support.
“Any process that will endure, must involve some pain but things will begin to improve. There is always a time lag between policy and effect. That is why the bad effects of past policies are manifesting now.
“Similarly, the positive impact of the work being undertaken to fix Nigeria’s problems will soon begin to show and we will emerge from this period stronger, wiser and more prosperous.
“There is hope for Nigeria, a hope that was previously clouded by corruption, greed and lack of focus.
“Nigeria is starting over and everyone has a role to play. Look back, look ahead.”
