President Muhammadu Buhari has
stated that his administration will
rebuild Nigeria, including the Niger
Delta region, and he is asking for
patience and understanding from
Nigerians.

Receiving a delegation of Niger
Delta dialogue and contact group,
led by Alfred Diette-Spiff, the
Amanyanabo of Twon Brass,
Bayelsa state, at state house
yesterday, Buhari pledged that
under his watch, Nigeria would
witness judicious utilisation of
resources.

“We intend to rebuild this country,
so that our children and
grandchildren will have a good
place they can call their own. A lot
of damage has been done, so I want
you to tell the people to be patient,”
he said.

“When you get together with other
leaders, please pacify the people.
We will utilise the resources of
Nigeria with integrity and rebuild
the country.”

“I want to get as much intelligence
as possible on the situation in the
Niger Delta. I have encouraged law
enforcement agencies to contact
leaders like you in order to have
enough information to deal with
the issues once and for all, “he said.
