Operation Free Nigeria From Greedy Few

Nigeria President, Muhammadu Buhari says his government is on a rescue mission on the nation’s resources from being appropriated by “a privileged few in their never ending quest to satisfy their greed”.

He said the All Progressives Congress-led Federal Government had resolved to build a country in which the resources were utilised for the benefit of the citizens, irrespective of their socio-political affiliations. 

He said: “That is the journey we have embarked on since we came on board in 2015, and we are not distracted as we move on. 

“We are resolved to build a country in which the resources are utilized for the benefit of the largest number, and not appropriated by a privileged few in their never ending quest to satisfy their needs. 

“We are on this together, and I assure you of a firm commitment to the ideals of a safe, secure, fair, just and prosperous country.’’ 

Nigerians desire peace, security, prosperity, inclusiveness and infrastructure development, a nation they can be proud of, a country that can hold its own among the nations.
