“I think it is good to give the new government time to settle down and time to assess what they have inherited from the Jonathan’s government so that they can sit down and begin to put the Nigerian house in order. And it’s good to give them time.”

He urged Nigerians to exercise patience with Buhari so that he arrives at a decision that will take the nation forward.

Adding that: “His transition committee didn’t have anything to work with. Just few days back, it handed over the report in 8,000 pages reduced to about 800 pages.”
