My Friends Please Accept Negotiation, Buhari Begs Niger Delta Militants

President Muhammadu Buhari has appealed to the Niger Delta Militants destroying oil installations in the Oil rich region to sheath their swords and negotiate with his administration to resolve any misunderstanding.

Buhari said this, yesterday, when residents of the Federal Capital Territory led by the minister, Muhammed Bello, paid him Christmas homage at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

 

We will persuade our friends in the Niger Delta area, plead to them to sit with us and agree on how to manage our resources rather than thinking of fighting it out.

 

Negotiation was the best option to decide how the Country’s resources can be managed, instead of picking up arms, he said.

 

Buhari also for the umpteenth time, blamed past administrations for failure to save for rainy days.

 

He said all the problems he outlined during the campaigns that preceded the 2015 presidential election were still lingering almost 18 months after he took over the mantle of leadership, and appealed to Nigerians to be patient with his government.
