President Muhammadu Buhari tonight hosted his maiden Presidential Media Chat since assuming
office on May 29 this year.

The challenges confronting Nigeria – insecurity,
the economy, corruption, dearth of infrastructure –
are still largely the same issues the last administration grappled with.

The presidency promised in the past to entertain
questions from Nigerians via telephone, although
the phone failed to work during those episodes of
the programme.

Critics believe the phones were programmed not to
work as a way of blocking citizens from asking the
president embarrassing questions.

We also urge the editors, who will interview the
president, to consider asking him some of the
suggested questions.
Our reporters are providing live updates of the
session.
