Be more patriotic, Buhari urges elites
…Says elites have failed the nation
President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday urged Nigerian elites to be more patriotic and partner with his administration in order to make life more meaningful for the ordinary Nigerians.
He made the appeal during the breaking-of-fast dinner with retired and serving Justices of the Supreme Court at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Buhari frowned at the selfish attitudes of some individuals who are bent on stifling the nation’s economy through illegal and sharp practices.
According to him, God has been good to Nigeria in terms of material and human resources but the elites had failed woefully in translating this to prosperity for the country.
The President therefore urged the Justices to assist in re-educating and convincing the elites on the need to be more patriotic in their actions and deeds to create a just, fair and stable society.
