Nigeria is on right track to change for good says President Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari says the present administration is on the right track to improve the image of the country by entrenching accountability and probity in governance.

The president said this in Dakar, Senegal, while speaking at a meeting with a group of Nigerians in the Diaspora, on the sidelines of the 3rd Dakar International Forum on Peace and Security in Africa.

Buhari, however, called on the Nigerian elite to stop insisting that things should be done the ‘old way’, which impoverished the nation.

President Buhari told the 11-man Nigerian delegation based in Senegal and Cote D’ Ivoire, that the last 16 years of poor handling of the nation’s resources and infrastructure had continued to impact negatively on the country.

On the welfare of Nigerians in the Diaspora, President Buhari assured them that the Federal Government would continue to promote good neighbourliness and improve the negative perception about Nigerians abroad.

In his remarks, the President of the Nigerian community, Cote D’ Ivoire, Alhaji Adebayo Yahaya, commended the president for his bold and unflinching fight against corruption.

The President of the Nigerian community in Senegal, Osas Edigin, told the President that Nigerians in the country had been enjoying excellent relationship with their hosts.
