Spokesman of the All Progressives Congress, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has debunked notions that President Muhammadu Buhari has been operating at a snail speed since he was sworn in on 29 May.
”It is just a perception. This is the first time there will be a transition.
He is not slow. I can assure you that in the next few weeks, very soon, there’ll be a rash of appointments,”Mohammed said on the sidelines of the National Executive Council meeting of the party in Abuja.
Mohammed said part of the progress the government had made was the directive given to some agencies to pay monies directly into the federation account and close other illegal accounts.
He listed the agencies as Federal Inland Revenue Service, Nigerian Ports Authority, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and Nigeria Customs Service.
He said Buhari’s integrity and character had attracted more friends for Nigeria than a few years ago, adding that the fight against insurgency would see vast improvements soon.
