My administration tackling infrastructural decay, insecurity – President Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has said that his regime had done very well in tackling issues of insecurity and infrastructural decay in the country.

Speaking during the stakeholders’ meeting held at the Imo State Government House in Owerri on Tuesday, after inaugurating the Owerri-Orlu Road, the phase one of the Owerri-Okigwe Road, and the State House of Assembly complex rebuilt by the administration of the state governor, Hope Uzodimma, Buhari said that Uzodimma’s government was able to achieve much despite the scarce resources at its disposal.

He praised his regime for dislodging Boko Haram terrorists in the North-East and addressing infrastructural decay.

The President said that the Federal Government would continue to support the Imo State Government and other states of the federation to deliver the dividends of democracy to their people respective of political party affiliation.

He said, “My administration is addressing infrastructure and security in Nigeria when compared with what we used to have from 1999 till 2015 when we took over.”

“Governor Uzodimma is doing well in Imo State. He is doing well with limited resources. The roads which I have just inaugurated will stimulate local economy in the state.

“I commend Governor Uzodinma for rebuilding the House of Assembly Complex. The Federal Government will continue to support the Imo State Government. This support is also available to other states of Federation irrespective of political party affiliation.”

In his address, Uzodinma said that the roads Buhari inaugurated were abandoned by previous administrations for decades, adding that his administration had constructed 105 roads in less than three years.

He, however, stressed that his administration had done so much with scare resources despite “insecurity and social media blackmails which are politically contrived.”
