He also called on Nigerians to be patient with President Muhammadu Buhari as he found solutions the country’s economic problems.
He said, “The recent revelation of former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki (rtd) claims that he got instruction from former President to allegedly divert arms money for PDP’s campaigns gives credence to the fact that Nigeria was brought to her knee by Jonathan’s government, the cause of what we are facing today.
“It is a condemnable act which all patriotic Nigerians, regardless of their political leaning must condemn. How would a few individual decided to divert money meant to save lives of Nigerians to campaigns?”
