According to the report, oil and gas industry, combating corruption and insecurity in North East Nigeria have been priorities of the government.

The report recommends PMB should immediately constitute cabinet to enhance smooth running of the government in tackling challenges confronting the country. It further states that government must unveil its policy direction, articulate a “Marshal plan” to address insecurity, direct efforts to implementing policies and programmes for employment generation and that urgent action should be taken to fulfill unrated 197 promises.


The report was released on the 7th of September 2015, with CDD report highlighting areas of priorities of the government, actions taken by the government to achieving specific promises, key concerns and makes specific recommendations.

Meanwhile, Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State does not seem to be relenting in his criticism of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
He said Buhari’s only achievement in 100 days as President is the harassment of members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and those considered as enemies to the President’s party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
