Tobi Soniyi in Abuja
Former Military Head of State, General Yakub Gowon (rtd.) on Tuesday in Abuja begged Nigerians to be more patient with Buhari, saying that all would be well very soon.
Speaking with State House correspondents after he met with President Muhammadu Buhari behind closed doors, Gowon said that Buhari was trying to fix the country and that Nigerians would begin to see the effect very soon.
On the kidnapped Chibok Secondary School girls, the former military ruler said that the government needed credible information to work with adding that at present, no one knew the actual location of the girls.
When asked why he was in the State House, he said: “I have come to see the President, to say hello to him. I haven’t seen him for quite some time. This time I have come to see him to pay my respect to him and to let him know that I’m going out of the country on vacation on my programme on Nigeria Prays in the UK and the USA towards the end of this month, and early next month. So I have come to let him know that I would be out of the country, should in case he wants me, he knows that I’m out and he is going to pay my way back, if he wants me back for any programmes.
“Of course, we discussed the general affairs of the country, the problems of the country, his fight against corruption, and all the efforts that he is making to deal with it and of course, the impatience of the public to see results of the fight which have yet to be found, since people have not been prosecuted yet, that would soon begin.”
