Isa Yuguda, a former governor of Bauchi State, stated on Monday, August 22, 2021 that despite grave security and economic worries, President Muhammadu Buhari has done his best to guide the nation’s affairs.
The remark was made by Mr. Yuguda, a former aviation minister, on the Sunrise Daily breakfast programme on Channels Television.
He said, “Mr. President has done his best. “Everyone’s best is unique. I can therefore say that the President did his best.
“And he has appointed actors to assist him to manage the country – they are also doing their best. It all depends on somebody’s assessments. As far as I’m concerned, the President has done his best.”
“Any rational Nigerian will know that it could not have been any better no matter who was there on the driving seat,” he said.
“Most of these things that are happening to us are historical.
“If you are coming from an environment where the foundation has been distorted then what you reap is what you sow.
“Security, for instance, is a historical thing. it didn’t start with Buhari’s government. It started in 2008, 2009.”
“Yes, he is the overall head, but if you see something going wrong in terms of security, you hold the Governor responsible,” he said. “You (Governor) are sworn in to protect life and property because you own the land.
“The President does not have land, so you don’t expect the President to secure your land.”
