APC Can’t Afford To Disappoint Nigerians – New SGF
Barely 24 hours after his appointment as the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr. Boss Mustapha on Tuesday said the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration cannot afford to disappoint Nigerians in improving conditions of livings for citizens.
Speaking to State House correspondents, Mustapha said, “We went round and campaigned and sought for their (Nigerians’) mandate; freely they gave us and it behoves on us charged with responsibilities to ensure that we do not disappoint them.
“The expectations are great out there. You live with families and you know the expectations of families. You live in communities; you know the expectations of those communities. You live in geographical jurisdictions and you know the expectations of those people.
“But we have come at a time when the resources are very very lean, in some cases not available but I believe with prudent management as being put in place by Mr. President, we will be able to navigate this very difficult terrain and at the end of the day, every Nigerian will have a smile on his face.”
Considering the manner the country had been mismanaged in the past, he called in Nigerians to exercise patience, adding that the APC never promised Nigerians heaven on earth.
Expressing hope that things would improve shortly, he urged Nigerians to show understanding and support for the government so that the nation can move forward.
