“ The year 2019 is the year of decision for Nigeria .
“ It is the year that the critical decision will be made as to whether Nigeria will continue along the path of development , in all ramifications ( social , economic , political , etc ) , that this administration has embarked upon since 2015 , or the country will retrogress and backslide to the throes of massive and primitive looting and lack of development . ”
Mohammed appealed to Nigerians to be vigilant and not yield the space to naysayers , adding that the gains made by the President Muhammadu Buhari administration in the past three years must be preserved .
“ Nigeria must continue on its present trajectory to sustainable growth and development . Never again must we go back to Egypt , ” he admonished .
The minister thanked Nigerians for their perseverance and support for the Buhari administration and gave an assurance that their sacrifice for the nation would not be in vain .
