Economist’s article is flawed, no administration has tackled insecurity like Buhari- Presidency.

The presidency has reacted to the Economist’s article on insecurity in Nigeria which the international weekly newspaper said is the West African country’s “biggest test since its civil war 50 years ago”.

It also noted that Nigeria may slip into a downward spiral from which it will struggle to emerge. The Economist which described the Nigerian army as only being “mighty” on paper, stated that there are two factors responsible for Nigeria’s increasing instability and they are “a sick economy and a bumbling government”. 

The magazine added that Buhari-led administration is “inept and heavy-handed”, and has “has failed to curb corruption, which breeds resentment”.
