In the last few hours, former President Muhammadu Buhari who had been taciturn since the expiration of his tenure in May has been making waves on social media.
This is on account of his disclosure during a recent interview with the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA).
Buhari in the interview published on NTA’s X handle bragged that he successfully fought insecurity, unemployment and ensured investments.
Not only that; the former President announced with flourish that Nigerians can now see the difference in these areas when compared to when he was in office.
In addition, he added that his success in fighting insecurity brought about investments in Nigeria while he was in office.
Former president maintained that his administration suppressed insecurity and boosted the economy in comparison with the administrations he took over from.
On whether he achieved his goals, Buhari said: “Not quite, but I would like Nigerians to reflect on the condition of Boko Haram before we came in and also the economy.
“So security, economy, and fighting corruption were the objectives I set before the government I led. I hope Nigerians have been following it and saw the difference.
“I know the government I led was lucky to get the governor of Borno State, he is young and incorruptible. We were lucky to have him in charge of the Northeast where Boko Haram was operating.
“I achieved my goal in security, economy, employment, and because we succeeded in insecurity, Nigerians developed confidence in their country and they invested more and people from outside came and invested.”
