Ekiti State Ex-Governor, Segun Oni says- If not for Buhari, Nigeria would have packed up by now

                              

The former governor of Ekiti State who is now the APC deputy national chairman, Segun Oni, says Nigeria would have packed up by now if not for President Buhari. Read below what he said in a recent interview with Vanguard.

"Well, the public is right to expect that we would do magic, but the right thing is, there is no magic way out of the problems on ground for Nigeria. The economy was traumatized by a government whose only agenda was to win another round. Therefore, everything that they could put into trying to win a second round even bastardizing the economy were all done, and we are all here now.

Fortunately for them, I would say they are not there any longer. The reality on ground is that if the previous Government were in power, by now, Nigeria would have virtually packed up; may be many of us would be refugees by now. So, it is very easy not to remember where we are coming from. Yes, we were elected to do the impossible, we will do our own best.  I just want to plead that people should give us more realistic expectations. 

This economy must work, we must get Nigeria back, but it is not as quick as anybody could imagine or just by a touch of the hand. So, people are entitled to their expectations, we as a government, we will do our best to ensure that the end would justify this cause. We were not elected to run Nigeria for one year or two years; we were elected to run Nigeria for four years and before we get to an appreciable length of time I am sure, I am confident that we would begin to see very, very obvious changes"he said
