Buhari has talked about how his commitment to free, fair, credible and violence-free polls is not a scam or yet another vain political promise, saying “my word is my bond.’’
He mentioned that he had already warned the security and law enforcement agencies to secure ballot boxes and ensure that “the outcome of the polls reflects the will of the Nigerian people’’.
“It is a sworn declaration on the advancement of Nigeria, the future and safety of our young and unborn generations.
“Let us tell the world that, indeed, ‘‘something good’’ can come out from Nigeria. And it will happen, as we all team up to make it happen,’’ he added.
President Buhari, who celebrated all Nigerians, particularly the Christian brothers and sisters, on the joyous occasion of this year’s Christmas, noted that, “in 2018, Nigerians have had mixed blessings, typical of human beings.’’
He said: “On the pleasant side, our economy has made significant progress since coming out from recession and our faithful implementation of the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan.
“Agricultural revolution has seen a vastly improved local production to the detriment of importation, while we have achieved surplus in our trade balance.
“Similarly, infrastructural deficit has been greatly reduced with significant improvements in roads, railways, aviation and power.
“In addition, we have not relented in the fight against corruption while the business environment has been improved through institutional reforms.’’
