"We are making efforts to correct our lapses" – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has assured that lapses that have characterised Nigeria as a nation would be corrected.

The President said this when he received a team led by Dr. Seth Berkley, Chief Executive Officer of Gavi and The Global Fund in State House, Abuja, on Thursday.

President Buhari said he was impressed with the patience and steadfastness of leading supporters of health care in Nigeria, “despite our shortcomings as a nation.”

“We are making genuine efforts to correct the lapses. We are very serious about people behaving themselves, and being accountable,” the President said.

“We thank you for deciding to re-engage with us, despite our inefficiencies. You decided to be here, not minding our shortcomings.

“There are other countries that would bring less problems. We appreciate your commitment, and we will do our best to put ourselves in the best shape to help us,” President Buhari said.
