"Nigeria is not making progress because of social injustice, insecurity - Buhari

 All Progressives Congress’ (APC) presidential aspirant, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, has named social injustice, insecurity and poor economy as contributing to Nigeria being static.

The former head of state spoke at the weekend in Onitsha, when he visited the commercial city for the burial of former Attorney-General of the Federation, Chief Chike Ofodile (SAN).

He argued that a society, where social injustice, insecurity and poor economy reigned could not stand, adding that it was bound to fall as Nigeria was falling.

He said he was disturbed that the Federal Government did not allow the National Assembly to set up a panel to investigate the appropriation of billions of naira budgeted to fight insurgency in the Northeast as well as the transparency of Power Holding Company of Nigeria’s (PHCN) privatisation and petroleum subsidy.

On why he was persistent in contesting the presidential election even after  three occasions and failing, Buhari declared: “I am contesting based on my efforts to institute social justice, adequate security and economic recovery”.

Onitsha stood still for the APC leader and his entourage, which included the Senator representing Anambra Central zone, Dr. Chris Nwabueze Ngige, with APC supporters and Onitsha youths singing, beating drums and dancing.
