Former President of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has said that Nigerians should expect nothing more from President Muhammadu Buhari.

Speaking at an event organised by the Global Peace Foundation and Vision Africa in Abuja on Monday, Obasanjo said if Nigerians are expecting anything more from Buhari, they are “whipping a dead horse”.

The former president said Nigerians should be concerned about making the country a better place after Buhari’s tenure.

“President Buhari has done his best,” he said.

The former president said political will should be matched with “political action” to tackle the country’s security challenges.

“The problem of insurgency will not go away, if all we are using is the stick,” Obasanjo said.

“We may suppress it, and keep it down a bit, but we have to use ‘carrot and stick’ together to effectively tackle the problems.”
