Nigerians are urged to follow the path of responsibility by President Muhammadu Buhari “if we really want to see the country achieve new heights.”
The president made the announcement during a goodbye gathering with his media allies on Thursday in Abuja, the Buhari Media Organisation (BMO).
The president showered praises on the members of the BMO for volunteering their time and energy throughout the eight years of his administration “without salary, letter of appointment or any formal rewards.”
“Buhari described their sacrifices as ‘very un-Nigerian.’
“I am so happy for all that you have done to support my administration. I don’t have enough words to thank you individually and collectively.
“I occasionally read your outbursts and often wondered what type of Nigerians are these. The sacrifices you have made for our success are beyond measure,” he said.
The president’s spokesman expressed gratitude on their behalf to him for giving them the chance to serve throughout his eight years as president.
He pointed out that throughout this time, non-governmental organisations provided the BMO with free support, which allowed it to survive.
