The ruling All Progressives Congress, APC has scored the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari high in the first 100 days of his second tenure.
Adams Oshiomhole, APC National Chairman in his assessment said, Buhari can beat his chest that he has started well and fast in the last four years of his administration.
Oshiomhole in an interaction with journalists in Abuja noted that Nigerians cannot call Buhari “Baba go slow now, this time he is Baba fast”.
While outlining some areas which the President’s achievements in 100 days is evident, said: “Everything is about the comparison. Because in 2015, after a hundred days we did not have a federal cabinet, the President had not appointed ministers. This time in a hundred days, from my interaction with a number of Ministers, even the budget for 2020 is already being prepared.
“Ministers have been assigned to their various Ministries. They have already started the process of taking over and trying to understand the challenges. Government is already effectively on ground. So even that alone shows a remarkable departure if you compare what the President has done in 2019 to what he has done in 2015.

“Even the current issues in South Africa, the prompt manner in which the President reacted and took bold steps sent a clear message to South Africa that we are not about to accept Nigeria being humiliated in their businesses. I think the bold step he has taken is refreshing”.
He further maintained that “The President has been engaging various groups. Recently, he was talking to the Nigeria Society of Engineers, several professional groups, reminding all of us that we have our role to play in the Nigeria project.
“As a Party, we have every access to the President, we see him any time we want to see him and share with him whatever we want to do. You notice that this time, the President also organized a retreat for Ministers immediately they were appointed.
“That retreat was not about entertainment, it was to discuss Nigeria and the administration’s policy choices. And of course, reminding then Ministers about the fact that there is a huge expectation out there at a time of dwindling resources. Now government challenge is where do we cut cost so that we can find resources we need to sustain investment in infrastructure.”
