Buhari: Change process has begun

President Mohammadu Buhari has assured Nigerians that his government would deliver the change that his administration promised during the 2015 polls.

Buhari who said he feels the pain and discomfort many Nigerians are currently facing stressed that the people had not entered one chance  by voting for him.

He said, "We understand that Nigerians have started questioning whether this indeed is the change they voted for, while some have even gone as far as saying that by voting for our party, Nigerians have entered one chance.

"Well, I can tell Nigerians that our change agenda is real, and that indeed, they will get the change they voted for. Nigerians have not entered One Chance, because the One Chance drivers and their conductors have been driven out of town."

He spoke through the Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed when he was presented with the personality of the year award alongside former President Goodluck Jonathan by Vanguard Newspapers.

The President explained that the government was striving hard to clean the rot it met on ground and that this could not be done overnight.

He said, "We want our compatriots to realize that 16 years of rot cannot be cleaned up overnight. It is much easier to destroy than to build. But we are determined to rebuild our country and to make life more abundant for our people.

“Change is a process, and that process has begun. We commend Nigerians for their perseverance. We urge them not to lose their confidence in the ability of this Administration to bring about the much-needed change."

Four governors were presented with the  Governor of the year awards including Kashim Shettima (Bornu), Adams Oshiomhole (Edo), Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun) and Ibrahim Dankwambo of Gombe state.

Other awardees were former Vice-President Dr. Alex Ekwueme (Life Time Achievement Awards), Managing Director of Zenith Bank, Mr. Jim Ovia (Businessman of the year), among others.
