Group Solicits Support For Buhari’s Infrastructure Programme
The Buhari Support Organisation (BSO) Enugu State chapter has appealed to the National Assembly and indeed all Nigerians to support President Muhammadu Buhari’s Infrastructure Renewal Programme as the only patriotic and viable means to renew our critical social and physical infrastructure.
In a statement by the Publicity Secretary, Eze Chibueze, BSO commended President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR for his laudable and patriotic programme of infrastructure upgrade.
It, however, appealed for the inclusion of Enugu Coal to Power project, seconnd Niger Bridge, Maiduguri-Port Harcourt Railway, Adani-Anambra Rice project, in the Buhari Infrastructure Renewal (BIR) External Borrowing Plan.
While re-affirming its full support for the loan, BSO noted that Mr. President was handicapped by the culture of impunity, the collapse of the oil prices, and the unprecedented looting which took place, hence the general infrastructure deficit.
“We are making this plea for inclusion of Enugu Coal to Power, 2nd Niger Bridge, Maiduguri-Port Harcourt railway and Adani-Anambra Rice projects in the Buhari Infrastructure Renewal segment of the federal government External Borrowing Plan 2016, 2017 and 2018 because of the following reasons:
“Our understanding is that the creditors predicated their transaction on the Integrity Quotient of Mr. President.

“Our understanding is that the creditors predicated their transaction on the Integrity Quotient of Mr. President.
“Most Nigerians as well are receptive of the loan because of the integrity quotient of Mr. President, knowing fully well that the loan will be prudently managed.
“President Buhari may not borrow again in the next eight years. BSO Enugu State Chapter reaffirms our full support of the loan, because of the truism that Mr. President is handicapped by the culture of impunity, the collapse of the oil prices, and the unprecedented looting which took place, hence the general infrastructure deficit,” it stated.
BSO Enugu chapter stated that they were gratified that majority of Nigerians had come to the inevitable conclusion that without Buhari Infrastructure Renewal, Nigerians would remain trapped in gross unemployment, abject poverty and weak infrastructure.
