Buhari to Nigerians: Your patience in me won’t end in vain

President Muhammadu Buhari has assured Nigerians that their resilience and patience in his administration will not end in vain, saying he shared the pains the citizens are going through.

Buhari said his administration will continue to reposition and strengthen the security agencies to tackle nation’s security challenges.

The President said this in his speech to mark Nigeria’s 62nd Independence Anniversary on Saturday.

He said: “As we continue to de-escalate the security challenges that confronted us at inception of this administration, newer forms alien to our country began to manifest especially in the areas of kidnappings, molestations/killings of innocent citizens, banditry, all of which are being addressed by our security forces.

“I share the pains Nigerians are going through and I assure you that your resilience and patience would not be in vain as this administration continues to reposition as well as strengthen the security agencies to enable them to deal with all forms of security challenges.

“At the inception of this administration in 2015, I provided the funding requirements of the security agencies which was also improved in my second tenure in 2019 to enable them to surmount security challenges. We will continue on this path until our efforts yield the desired results.

“As we put in place all measures to ensure that Nigeria takes her place in the Comity of Nations, we recognise the importance of a well-educated populace as a panacea to most of the challenges we face,” President Buhari stated.
