John Oyegun, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says the Muhammadu Buhari administration took over a “collapsed country”.
Oyegun said this on Thursday while speaking at an event where he was conferred with the distinguished political leadership award by the Benin National Congress in Edo state.
He said until the Buhari administration came on board, Nigeria was a laughing stock.
“Change is not bridges. Change is not electricity. Change is not roads. Change is my perception as to what is right and what is wrong, what needs to be done and being faithful in getting it done,” Oyegun said.

“For as long as we, Nigerians, have the wrong type of morality, the wrong type of ethics, not all the roads in this world will get us out of the economic morass we have plunged ourselves into.
“Change takes time and consistency of application and the resolve not to go back to the bad old days. We took over a totally collapsed country. The hope is that things have started to solidify.
“Things have started to concretise; the economy has started to grow.

“It is not a switch; it is something that will take time. But once we are there, this nation will never experience the type of recession we had in the past.”
