The President said he has used every opportunity at his disposal ahead of this meeting to discuss the country’s needs with specific reference to terrorism and development needs at person-to-person meetings and phone conversations with some of these leaders. “These development issues, many and varied as they are, touch on the economy, combating corruption, increased foreign direct investment, FDI; power and energy, infrastructure, environment, enhanced transparency in elections and good governance.”
President Buhari announced that the leaders of the industrialized nations have shown a preparedness to work with Nigeria to help the country out of her problems. President Buhari will hold meetings on the sidelines with the host, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the French President, Francois Hollande, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and the World Bank President Dr. Jim Yong Kim.

  24. Can't wait for normalcy to be restored in our country. Security, development, good infrastructure, education, employment, power sector, a whole lot. Hoping that GMB's govt will be a successful one towards achieving all these.

  25. The issue of security is quite important but emphasis should be given to "loots recovery."
    The west should be sincere in this situation. They must be willing to expose any polithiefcians hiding his/her stolen loots in their banks.

  28. Thats Ok but he should be careful of "WETA ISI BIA WERE ISI". Our continents experience with western powers has been mostly detrimental when it comes to offering "help", be it world bank IMF, trade etc.. because there will most likely be a string dangling somewhere. just saying - PMB be careful and don't give our country away.

  32. 1 pray he did not go without his pride. The West only thrives on dependency. That is why they are Scared of China, India. These are countries that have liberated themselves which means they did not rely on white ppl to give them. They had their own experts offer the west the terms that would not enslave them. They negotiated on their own terms. Don't collect no IMF, world bank and other demonic loans with enslavement terms.

  33. Let's see how APC and Buhari can change. Bcos all they ate doing now if the PDP policies which the PDP wonna do and they said why will GEJ seek for foreign help when 9ja Military are able. Why are they seeking it now. They deceived I guys to power. They will soon divide like the PDP

  35. Given there are no free lunches, what is Naija's price tag for the new "wish list" so magnanimously requested by the West? Truth is, there's an enormous cost to the nation whether now or in the immediate future when collection is due. Question is: will the set terms/conditions in addition to the "new debt burden" be palatable to Buhari and Naijas when the time is up? I dey laff.

  36. Boko Haram, is the first priority.
