President Muhammadu Buhari says he has fulfilled all the major promises he made to the Nigerian electorate during his political campaigns across the country.
He stated this on Tuesday when he paid homage to the Lamido of Adamawa, Alhaji Muhammadu Barkindo at his palace, stressing that the fight against corruption and the maintenance of peace and security were among the priorities of his administration.
President Buhari maintained that the security situation in the north-eastern part of the country was rapidly improving, adding that there was noticeable improvements in the economy especially in the agricultural sector.
In his response, Alhaji Barkindo advised the President not to listen to the calls by some prominent Nigerians whom he described as ‘empty barrel Nigerian elites’ that he should not seek for a second term.
“I am urging you to remain focused, stand firm and don’t listen to the empty barrels Nigerian elites who are calling you not to re-contest for 2019 presidential election. They are burying their heads in shame and telling people that Buhari- led government has done nothing,” Barkindo said.
