President Buhari reassures Nigerians of real change

President Buhari has enjoined Nigerians not too lose hope in the change agenda. He appreciated their for their perseverance in the midst of the hardship being faced by the people while assuring them that the change of their dream will come.
The President gave the assurance on Friday night at the 2015 Vanguard Awards in Lagos.. Speaking during the event where  he was honored with the personality of the year award 2015, Mr. President said that he was aware of the challenges Nigerians were facing at this time, resulting mostly from the fuel scarcity, poor power supply, and inflation.

''As a government that was propelled into office by the power of the people, we cannot but feel the pains of our compatriots, and we deeply empathize with them,” Mr. Buhari said in his speech. He stated that the government was “working round the clock to ease the pains of Nigerians,” claiming, “the efforts of the government have started yielding fruits as we seek to make the petroleum products available nationwide, restore gas supply to the power generating firms, reflate the economy and put Nigerians back to work.”

Buhari, who was represented by the minister of  Information and culture Lai Mohammed, said that he is aware that Nigerians the credibility of the change he promised, while some had even gone as far as saying that by voting for the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigerians have entered “one chance.”
“Well, I can tell Nigerians that our change agenda is real, and that indeed, they will get the change they voted for. Nigerians have not entered ‘one chance’, because the ‘one chance’ drivers and their conductors have been driven out of town,” the president said.
“Change is a process, and that process has begun. The pains of today are temporary, and will soon give way to abundance joy as we put our country firmly on the path of sustainable growth and development.”
 He gave kudos to the media which he said has always stood solidly on the side of the people for the role it played during the general election that enthroned him.
“When the history of the last general elections as well as our democracy is eventually written, I have no doubt that the media will occupy a prominent place on its honour’s list. This is not a surprise, because there is no contesting the fact that from the pre-independence years through the years of independence, the various attempts at democratic governance and the years of military interregnum, the media has stood solidly on the side of the people and has fought for the national interest, without compromising its integrity,” Buhari added.
