Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State has commended President Muhammadu Buhari’s deft management of the economy which resulted to the country’s exit from recession, just as he predicted that the President would soon overcome the security challenges in the country. He said only a leader with the patriotism, vision and determination of President Buhari would have seen Nigeria through recession within five years, adding that the same zeal and vision will navigate the country out of the present security situation in the country.
Speaking with reporters in Owerri, Governor Uzodimma noted that it was remarkable that the president was not responsible for any of the recession, yet he fought gallantly to steer the economy to safety. He also recalled that while notable World economies including UK,US, Japan, France and Switzerland among others were still battling with Covid-19 induced recession, Nigeria was out of it due mainly to Buhari’s hardwork.
On the security challenges in the country, the governor noted that both state governors and local government chairmen should equally take responsibility for the security situation in their areas of jurisdiction, noting that security was the collective responsibility of all stakeholders He argued that the same tenacity from the president which propelled the country’s exit from recession will soon bring about a lasting solution to the security challenges in the country.
