President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed that his administration would be merciless in fighting those who looted Nigeria’s funds.
The President said his administration would make sure the elite who conspired to run the country down were disgraced.
According to a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, the President spoke during an interactive session he had in Malabo with Nigerians resident in Equatorial Guinea.
The statement quoted the President as saying, “We will be merciless and relentless in pursuing all those who abused public trust. Nigerians will see how some of the elite conspired to run the nation down”.
He also condemned recent political violence in Rivers State, saying the killing of people over political differences was primitive, barbaric and unacceptable.
He promised to deal decisively with those responsible for the development.
“We will deal decisively with all sponsors of violence. I have given the security services clear directives in this regard.
“We will show that violence in any form will no longer be tolerated before, during or after elections,” he stated.
Buhari promised that the Independent National Electoral Commission would be encouraged to explore the possibility of Nigerians abroad participating in the 2019 general elections by casting their votes wherever they might reside.
