Nigerians will yearn for President Buhari when he leaves office – Garba Shehu
The Senior Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, has said that just like Goodluck Jonathan, Nigerians will yearn for President Muhammadu Buhari when he leaves office.
In an interview with Channels Television, Shehu lamented over the level of criticisms thrown at the president, asserting that leaders are not loved while in office. Citing the case of Goodluck Jonathan who he says was persecuted out of office, but has now become the favorite of many Nigerians, Shehu argued that it will be the same way Nigerians will yearn for President Buhari after he hands over power to the next president come May 29.
Regarding the cashless policy, Shehu affirmed that the current cashless policy of the present administration is desirable and therefore irreversible. According to him, “cashless is the way forward for Nigeria because cashless nations and in fact, all advanced nations of the world have gone cashless”.
Acknowledging the challenges that have accompanied the change, the president’s spokesman said it is sad that the only people who should have been more pained are the ones who are inflicting pains on the lower segment of the society.
