President Muhammadu Buhari, despite the magnitude of the pressure at home due to the ailing state of the economy has earned international accolades.
U.S. President Barack Obama
U.S. President Barack Obama on Tuesday commended President Muhammadu Buhari’s economic reforms, describing them as “bold”, according to the News Agency of Nigeria.
This is coming after Buhari's popularity has been dented due to the current economic recession that has led to loss of jobs and scathing pains of inflations.
Mr. Obama made the commendation when he met with Mr. Buhari on the sideline of the ongoing 71st UN General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, United States of America.
He said the U.S. would continue to offer support to Nigeria in areas of agricultural development, recovery of stolen funds and the fight against Boko Haram. He said his country would put things on ground to sustain partnership and cooperation between the two countries.
“We discussed broader issues on development and the president is taking some very bold economic reforms in allowing for a flexible exchange rate,” he said.
“We are focusing on agriculture and we pledged to offer all the assistance that we can in that area and as the president is trying to stamp out corruption and to recover external funds that may have been illegally obtained and are sitting in bank accounts around the world.
“As he continues to work to see that the security forces inside Nigeria are abiding to professional and human right standards, what we have pledged is that we will partner in any way that we can be helpful,” President Obama said at a briefing after the bilateral talks.
The U.S. leader said his administration was carefully coordinating additional ways to make further progress in not only destroying Boko Haram but to ensure that the region fully recovered.
He said America was also willing to assist Nigeria to facilitate a reduction of the conflict in the Niger Delta region.Visit some of the website built by tonygists
