President Buhari has said that the sweeping offensive against drug trafficking will be sustained by his istration in its second term in office, Igbere Tv reports.


President Buhari said this when he received leaders of Nigerian Community in Saudi Arabia at the end of his Umrah trip in Saudi Arabia today May 21st. The president said efforts should be intensified to expose those involved in drug trafficking and illegal trade in the country, assuring that appropriate actions would be taken.


The President said the recent exposure of a network of drug dealers operating at one of Nigeria’s international airports, who were discovered to be tagging bags filled with drugs in the name of innocent engers, called for expansion of searchlights.


He urged citizens to refrain from breaching the laws of Nigeria and other countries.


“Every country has its own unpatriotic citizens. In China and Saudi Arabia, the laws are stringent on these things. Our citizens must obey our laws. They must respect the laws of other jurisdictions and if they don’t, then they should blame themselves, not the harsh laws that they meet,” President Buhari said.


The President said he was grateful for the and prayers of Nigerians in Saudi Arabia for wellbeing of the country, assuring them that his istration will do its best to secure the country, improve economy and fight corruption, Igbere Tv reports.


“We have tried in the war against terrorism and citizens in the Northeast are our best witnesses. Agriculture is doing well, to the point that we are food self-sufficient, as a result helping the nation to save money on imports,” he added.


On the renewal of his mandate for a second term, President Buhari said he owed Nigerians a debt of gratitude.


According to him, “we are doing our best. I will continue to keep the trust of citizens. I am happy Nigerians have confidence in us. The crowds I witnessed in my campaign across the 36 states were not staged. No amount of money could have generated that enthusiasm. I assure everyone that I will continue to do my best. I will keep the trust of Nigerians.’’

And what are you doing about your retàrded brain Mr. Pain in the asś?
The other thread, Pinnick charged with $8,400, N4bn fraud (Nigeria’s money o) and no one is talking about it but hypocrites Nigerians are hailing him for visiting Chukwu but it’s Naira Marley that plunged Nigeria into poverty that’s your problem. You go get sense by force.

What's his business with drug trafficking?

Does this old man even know his job description?

Is he planning to head NDLEA just like he did Ministry of Petroleum?

Haba.

Step up action against Hunger... Unemployment and insecurity and see all these evil vices die a terrible death...


But here we are so preoccupied in chasing shadows...
Many youths are into cyber crimes and we prefer to arrest them rather than address the root cause...

Let him build more prisons then...

Buhari has nothing to offer the country.... But I was atleast expecting his advisers to come to his aid...

Only fools this cow government...
Buhari is a failure

They are folks who drug trafficking has seeped into their blood stream, not about the economy. Why is that those who have hundreds of millions in their bank s, proceeds from drug trafficking still continue with the trade?
