I’ve Achieved More With Lean Resources – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari says his administration has done so much for so many with so little.

The president said this at the closing ceremony of the one-year ministerial performance review retreat in Abuja on Tuesday.

Buhari asked the “Nigerian elites” to judge him fairly, and that ministers should vehemently defend the government.

He said his administration is doing everything humanly possible to deliver on election promises.

He added that more has been achieved with little resources compared to previous administrations when oil sold at a higher rate.

“I have charged all of you to defend the government vigorously and not allow any irresponsible and politically motivated statements to keep spreading falsehoods about this government,” he said.

“Information to the public should be better packaged; go on the offensive, we are proud of our achievements and we should blow our own trumpets.

“I want the Nigerian elites, please encourage them, to judge us fairly… the average production of oil in the country, from 1999 to 2014, was 2.1 million barrels per day (and) sold at an average price of $100.

“When we came, it collapsed to $37, $38 per barrel, you know it. And the militants were unleashed on the administration, and the production went down to half a million barrels per day.

“I want you to please reflect. What was the condition of the infrastructure then, in spite of those earnings? The roads, the rail was dead and there was no power; up till now, no power. Where does the money go?”
