President Muhammadu Buhari has said that only those with integrity and interest of Nigeria in their heart will be considered in the next cabinet.
He also promised to appoint more women and youth during his second tenure, acknowledging that they played a “significant role” toward his re-election.
This is coming even as the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP and leading opposition candidate Atiku Abubakar in the presidential election has decided to challenge the outcome of the polls in court.
The president had earlier said that his next four years in office as Nigeria’s leader will be tough for him.
While speaking at a dinner organized by the All Progressives Congress (APC) women and youth to celebrate his re-election, on Saturday, Buhari assured that his administration would not disappoint them.
He explained that more fertilizers were being made available to Nigerian farmers at a lower rate, adding that this has resulted in an increase in agricultural production and reduction in food importation.
Buhari also called on Nigerian youth to embrace agriculture to ensure more food sufficiency and food export, insisting that the 16-year rule of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) “wasted the nation’s resources”.
According to him, the country witnessed “rampant infrastructure decay” in spite of the huge resources earned during the period.
