President Buhari States His Focus In 2018 (Read Details)

President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed that his administration’s focus
for the new year will be infrastructure which will bolster the progress of the
country.
The president made this disclosure on his official Twitter account (@MBuhari)
on Tuesday, January 23, 2018, as he told Nigerians to expect development in
the form of roads, railway projects and power.
In light of the recent spate of violent killings in the country, especially the
series of carnage allegedly orchestrated by herdsmen, the president also noted
that security will remain a priority for his administration.
He posted, “Our focus in 2018 is infrastructure: roads, our railway projects,
power, and airport concessions. We will intensify our efforts, and you will see
progress. In this regard we are very grateful for what the Chinese are doing to
support us, in financial and technical ways.
Security will also continue to be a priority. We have increased the deployment
of security forces, to halt the attacks by herdsmen on communities, and bring
to an end the sorrow and hardships that vulnerable communities have had to
endure.
On the economy, I’m pleased with the progress we’re making, the stable Naira,
falling inflation, rising external reserves, rising harvests, an improving business
environment as demonstrated by our rise in the World Bank’s Doing Business
Index, and growing manufacturer confidence.”
