The President assures General Buhari of his Administration’s sincere commitment and dedication to the successful prosecution of the fight against terrorism and all other threats to national security.

Now, the Chief Propagandist has recanted and swallowed arrogance and undeserved pride. They went on the path of unnecessary blame game by playing the ostrich. The universal fact is that you cannot give what you don't have. The Presidency is not a learning ground and you do not depend on mere goodluck to govern a country as complex as Nigeria. Grandstanding is certainly out of the question. They deliberately tried to smear the integrity of General Muhammadu Buhari. Those of us that knew their game, told gullible Nigerians their game plan will fail. GMB was never party to all the rubbish and drummed up accusations. Now that the proverbial chicken has come home to roost, they now know where to turn to and who is the statesman and who the pretenders and blackmailers are. We will stand by Buhari, protect his integrity and give him our unalloyed support anytime and any day. The rot and decadence in the country is massive for a pretender and learner to tackle. Before GMB will extend his hand of fellowship and cooperation to this administration, we expect, without delay, the apologies demanded by our respected leader from the uncouth Olisa Metuh, the Publicity Secretary of the ruling party and the leadership of the ruling party. Time is running out for them. Finally, i call on all Gejites, religious propagandists, spin doctors of the "chop-i-chop" party and all gullible/uninformed Nigerians to retrace their evil steps and accord General Muhammadu Buhari the respect he deserves. He will kick start the country on the part of recovery.
