You are free to leave Nigeria if you have another country – President Buhari

Head of states, President Muhammadu Buhari has said if Nigerian has a country to go to, let him go, that the rest will stay here and salvage the country.

In a statement issued on Tuesday by the special assistant to the president on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, Buhari had this to say when he received Niger Delta leaders.

“We are determined to make life comfortable and affordable to all Nigerians. If anybody has a country to go to, let him go, we will stay here and salvage our country.”

Speaking further, the President urged leaders of the region to join him in building the country.

“Please Your Excellencies, Your Majesties, Distinguished ladies and gentlemen; we all have our individual constituencies. Let us try to pacify our constituencies.

Let us first recover our country, secure the country and let us invite people who will invest. Let us create jobs for our people and let us be accountable to our people where we are sitting on treasuries, whether it is local government, state or the center. We should ensure that we rebuild this country.

Nobody wants to fail. So, the only way out is, if people understand and believe that we are doing our best at all levels, then we will have some peace. But it they have reason to doubt our performance and sincerity, then we will have problem”.
