Meanwhile, Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State has accused President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) of failing to deliver on its campaign promises.
Speaking on Channels Television, the chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF) admitted that the ruling party had fallen short of the expectations people had before they took power.
He stated that though some of the issues had been rocking the country before the Buhari’s government, however, the present administration should have taken responsibility for not delivering on campaign promises to Nigerians.
Fayemi said: “I’m not going to shy away from the expectations people had before we came to office. I was a leading player in the campaign that brought my principal ( Buhari) to power.
“We promised Nigerians quite a number of things, particularly centering on security, anti-corruption, and on economic growth. Have we been able to attain all of what we promised? Obviously not.”
