The President laid emphasis on the oil sector saying, “I have challenged anybody in Nigeria to check in Europe, America and Asia that Nigeria was producing 2.1million barrels per day at the cost of $100 per barrel.

“Nigeria was earning 2.1million x$100 per barrel x 15 years, where was the money?”

He criticised the opposition party (PDP) for not doing enough in the area power and railway.

According to President Buhari, “They said they spent $16bn on power. Where is the power?

“What they will try to do is to cover the theft they have committed against the nation.
