The Special Adviser to the President on
Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, has urged Nigerians to keep
faith with the current administration’s commitment to take “Nigeria
to the promised land.”
He said President Muhammadu Buhari is
fulfilling his campaign promises to Nigerians, particularly in
stimulating the economy for job creation, anti-corruption campaign
and security of lives and property.
He made the statement while addressing
a delegation of Northern Youths Initiative for Peace and Good
Governance on Tuesday, in Abuja.
“I am glad that majority of Nigerians
are still with President Buhari.
“The excitement and jubilation,
around the country, that greeted his return to Nigeria recently is a
clear testimony of the love, confidence and belief, which Nigerians
have in his leadership.
“We are witnessing a positive turn
around in the economy, agriculture, the fight against corruption, job
creation and I am very confident that President Buhari will lead
Nigeria to the Promised Land before the mandate given to him by
Nigerians lapses in 2019,” Adesina said.
The Special Adviser, who received the
Sardauna Leadership Award, “Icon of Societal Transformation”,
thanked the Group for the honour, noting that he was motivated to
serve in government because of the personality and integrity of the
President.
In his remarks, the President of the
Northern Youths Initiative, Comrade Muhammadu Abubakar, described
Adesina as an exemplary leader.
“You are a Goldfish that has no
hiding place.
“We northern youths, under the aegis
of Northern Youth Initiative for Peace and Good Governance, honour
you as Garkuwan Matasan Arewa (The shield of Northern Youths), for
your invaluable contribution to the country and inspiring role to the
upcoming generation,” he added.
