BUHARI ‘CANNOT DO MAGIC’ IN A RESTLESS NATION – JONATHAN

 

Immediate past President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, has said that his successor, President Muhammadu Buhari, and any other president “cannot ‎do magic” if there is so much tension in the land.

Jonathan also said one of the major challenges bedeviling Nigeria was threats by terror ‎groups ‎and other allied bodies.

Speaking at his Abuja residence when the PDP Former Ministers’ Forum ‎paid him Eid-el-Fitr visit, Jonathan said what improved the economy was confidence and what made investors to have confidence was peace.

“No president can do magic if there is so much tension in the land because immediately there is a sense of insecurity in any country, investors go back, and when investors go back, of course, your economy will doom.

“Nobody wants to go and invest where you are not too sure of the security of your workers, facilities and so on. We should all pray and work towards peace; that is the only way as a nation we can grow our economy,” he said.
