The Former President, who listed insecurity, economic instability, and poor governance, as major challenges facing Nigeria under the President Muhammadu Buhari administration, urged the citizens to be resolute and proactive in addressing the logjam.
His words: “There are many challenges in Nigeria today. There are challenges of insecurity, economy, and political instability, among others. These challenges are not really new, except that they have taken a different dimension.
“I believe that the most important aspect of dealing with all the challenges we have, is leadership, and the people must come together. But then, there must be leadership to get everybody to work.”
On the increasing call for the sacking of the Security Chiefs, in a bid to address the problem of incessant insecurity in the country, he said: “I did not appoint Security Chiefs, how can I ask that they be sacked? If I have a piece of fatherly advice for the Security Chiefs, I will not give it through the Media.”
