No government has done more to foster democracy and freedom of speech in Nigeria than the Buhari's administration, the president's office said,,,

No government has done more to foster democracy and freedom of speech in Nigeria than the Buhari’s administration, the president’s office said in a statement Tuesday.

“We find it ridiculous for the federal government to be pretending to celebrate a certain democracy day while in the actual sense, the nation is supposed to be observing days of mourning,” spokesperson of the group, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, said in condemnation of the spate of the insecurity in the country, particularly in the north.

While Mr Shehu said this, critics have accused this administration of repeated disobedience of court orders, disregard for the rule of law as well as gagging of the press. But Mr Shehu agreed there are challenges posed by the terrorists Boko Haram, but insisted this that “this government has done more than any other — elected or not elected — to curtail and beat back the terrorists.”
