Buhari: I Am Upset With The Level Of Poverty In Nigeria
President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed that he isn’t happy with the level of poverty in Nigeria. He said this when he hosted Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, Ministers, Service Chiefs, Heads of Security Agencies, and Chief Executives of Federal Government Agencies and Institutions to a breaking of fast at the Presidential Villa, Abuja last night.
In his words:
“When I drive around the country what upset me very much is the status of our poor people in this country. You see young people, the so-called Almajiris with torn dresses, with plastic bowls. They are looking basically for what to eat. The question of education (to them) is a luxury. I think the Nigerian elite are all failing because I think we should have a program that will at least guarantee some basic education for our people no matter how poor they are.”
