Former military Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon, has expressed optimism that the current recession in Nigeria will soon be a thing of the past.
He stated this yesterday in Abuja, at the Book Presentation on the Challenges of Leadership in Nigeria: a Case Study of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Gowon, who was the chairman of the occasion, said he was confident that judging by his pedigree over the years, President Buhari will restore the dwindling fortunes of the country.
Also speaking at the occasion, the National leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu said described President Muhammadu Buhari a true democrat.
The former Lagos State Governor said Buhari was in haste to bring change as a young leader, but as an older leader, Buhari “is now slow and steady”.
The well attended event had the Presidents of Benin Republic, Chad and Niger, alongside former President Olusegun Obasanjo, among eminent Nigerians.
