President Muhammadu Buhari has urged governors to fulfill their campaign promises or face rejection by the electorates.
Buhari said this at the opening of the 2023 induction for re-elected and elected governors at the State House Conference Center, Abuja.
He said the outcome of the 2023 general elections has shown that if a political office holder doesn’t perform after being elected, the people will vote him out in the subseqquent election.
Represented by his Chief of Staff, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari, the President said one interesting development from the just concluded general elections is the maturity of the electorate in using their votes to decide who they want.
“Any public officer who fails to either meet up with the expectations of the people or deliver on his campaign promises would be voted out in the next election. That is what democracy is about; deliver or get shown the door out,” he said.
The president, however, claimed his administration which ends in two weeks, has made steady progress for the prosperity of Nigeria since it took office in 2015.
