Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara State said President Buhari has confirmed to the state governors that Nigeria’s economy is in a bad shape.
Consequently, he said President Buhari had told the governors to redouble efforts in addressing infrastructure deficiencies in their respective states to revamp the nation’s economy.
Yari, who is the Chairman of the Governors’ Forum, said the President stated this at a closed door with the 36 State Governors of the federation in Abuja.
According to him, “Mr President, as usual, responded by telling us that the economy is in a bad shape and we have to come together and think and rethink on way forward.
“So, Mr President talked to us in the manner that we have a task ahead of us. So, we should tighten our belts and see how we can put the Nigerian economy in the right direction and how we can address the nation’s infrastructural decay.
“So, all of us as leaders especially those that are coming to the National Assembly and those coming back as governors and the president who will be re-elected by God grace we should not think that things are going to be easy.
”They are going to be harder than before, this was the message of Mr President.’’
