“As at today, all these crisis have been controlled, no more Boko Haram, the Biafara agitators have laid down their arms and have started supporting President Buhari; even the militants in the Niger Delta have come out to support Buhari to check mate the oil pipelines vandalisation in their region”.
Honorable Rabiu Garba Kaugama has said that the huge budget allocated to defence by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is already paying dividend as Biafra agitators have laid down their arms to support the president.
In an interview with Leadership, the lawmaker representing Madori Kaugama federal constituency of Jigawa state in the National Assembly said members of the Peoples Democratic Party have no right to criticize President Buhari especially concerning the budget as the party has nothing to show for the 16 years it spent in power.

He said: “I think it is not good for anybody that belongs to PDP to come out and be criticising President Buhari. This is somebody who has just spent only
Hon. Rabiu Garba Kaugama
six months in office as president and people are seeing his good impact to the society in terms of development. This is in contrast with PDP which ruled for over 16 years in this country without anything to show for their stewardship. PDP nearly destroyed Nigeria to the level that it is only somebody like President Buhari that can correct all these abnormalities. Some people are saying that they don’t see anything good in 2016 budget, saying that it is not a budget of hope, still criticising Buhari, let them come out and cite any good project of the previous administration.”
The lawmaker said the money put into the issue of defence and security was to make the country safe especially with the different interest groups springing up in the country.

“Security is the main problem Nigeria is facing as at today. Looking at how much the past administration spent on security during Jonathan’s regime, nothing was achieved because Boko Haram defeated our Nigerian Army because they didn’t have the sophisticated weapon to deal with the terrorists but as at today, the reverse is the case. Our Army has recorded a tremendous success in the fight against insurgency in the North East.
“So Mr President did not put money in Defence for nothing but to protect lives and properties of Nigerians. Look at the Boko Haram in the North East; the militants in the Niger Delta and the Biafara agitators in the South east, all these are security challenges facing Mr President and he has to control it so that Nigeria will not disintegrate. As at today, all these crisis have been controlled, no more Boko Haram, the Biafara agitators have laid down their arms and have started supporting President Buhari; even the militants in the Niger Delta have come out to support Buhari to check mate the oil pipelines vandalisation in their region.

All these are being done with money and on the issue of State House, Buhari that I know will not take any money that he cannot account for. Nobody knows the condition of the State House, what he needs to run the place. We all understand and heard how former president, Jonathan messed up the place so Buhari needs money to bring up the State House to international standard. I still urge Nigerians to have faith in President Buhari because I am sure that he is going to repair what the past PDP administration has destroyed.”
