Buhari never promised he was going to do anything in 100 days- Lai Mohammed

APC national spokesperson, Lai Mohammed this morning on
Channels TV said President Buhari never promised to do
anything within his 1st 100 days in office.
"Buhari never promised to do anything in 100 days,
that's the honest truth. You see, when you are
running a campaign, all kinds of literature will
emerge from all sorts of groups but I came here
and I said there are only just two documents that
you can judge a party with. that is the constitution
of the party and the manifesto of the party. Those
are the only two documents that are registered with
INEC you can go to court on or hold a party
accountable for" he said
His statement comes a few days after presidential
spokesperson, Shehu Garba released a statement
distancing President Buhari from two documents tagged
"One Hundred Things Buhari Will Do in 100 Days" and the
other, "My Covenant With Nigerians.". The documents had
a list of promises President Buhari and APC during their
campaign, vowed to fulfill within his 1st 100 days in office
if elected.
The statement in part reads "
"Both pamphlets bore the authorized party logo but
as the Director of Media and Communications in
that campaign, I did not fund or authorize any of
those. I can equally bet my last Kobo that
Candidate Buhari did not see or authorize those
publications. As a consequence of these publications,
expectations have been raised unreasonably, that
as President, Muhammadu Buhari will wave his
hand and all the problems that the country faces-
insecurity, corruption, unemployment, poor
infrastructure would go away. But that
notwithstanding, President Buhari has given the job
his best shot and the whole country is saying that we
never had it so good. He has re-instituted the
values of hard work and administrative efficiency.
The President says times without number that this
country needs to fix governance and that he won't
tolerate laziness".
