Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari has discredited criticisms of abysmal performance made against his government, saying he is proud of what he has achieved since 2015. Kemi Adeosun, who was until last month Nigeria’s finance minister, acknowledged the document was fake and resigned. While the APC disqualified him from contesting the governorship primaries in his native Oyo State, the Buhari government has not taken any action against him. The increase to 8000 megawatts, independent power projects in nine federal universities, and the school feeding programmes were also listed as parts of his achievements. Three former members of Buhari’s party who defected between 2017 and 2018 are leading contenders in the election.
