Nigerians will soon see the ‘change’ I promised– Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari
has assured that Nigerians will
soon see the fulfilment of his
election campaign promises.
He spoke on Wednesday in Abuja
while receiving university
students.
The president assured Nigerian
youth that his government’s anti-
corruption campaign would
secure their future.
In an address to members of the
National Association of Nigerian
Students (NANS) who marched to
the presidential villa to pledge
their full support for his anti-
corruption campaign, President
Buhari promised that he will do
his best to place Nigeria well on
the way to becoming the nation of
their dreams.
“Everything you have asked for
are the things that will make for a
good country, and what we are
after is a good country, a country
where our youths can have a
future and a hope,” the president
said.
“We are totally committed to
building a country where our
youths can realize their full
potential.
“You can be assured that your
welfare and well-being are
topmost in our minds and very
soon you will see the things we
have promised come to fruition.
“During the campaigns, change
was our slogan, but today it is no
longer a mere slogan, it is now a
reality and we will see it in every
facet of our lives.
“The youth will feel it, the adults
will feel it and old people will feel
it and we will get the country of
our dreams,’’ the president, who
was represented by his Special
Adviser (Media & Publicity), Femi
Adesina, said.
Mr. Adesina later received a
document addressed to President
Buhari from the NANS President,
Tijani Usman Shehu, and
promised that the president will
look into their requests.
In his remarks, Mr. Shehu said
the students were united against
corruption, cybercrime,
prostitution, human trafficking,
drug abuse and other anti-social
vices.
“Nigerian students demand that
our future must be secured and
we strongly believe in the President’s zero
tolerance for corruption,’’ he said.
