As the Muhammadu Buhari administration fast approaches the 2-year mark, Presidential Spokesperson, Femi Adesina said it's too early to judge the administration.
Adesina said, "People can always express their opinions, there is liberty on that, but you don't have a scientific survey that has given you the percentage of people that believe that the APC has failed. The second point is that, when a government via a party is voted into office, it is voted for a four year term under our own democratic arrangement.
"When you have spent two years which is like a midterm, the first half of a game, you don't then determine that it has succeeded or it has failed. No. You can be accused of being atomistic using a small part to determine the whole. You can't write the report card of this administration when it is just hitting the half-way mark, that will not be fair.
"The term is four years and the promises are going to be stretched over that four year at period. Like the minister of sports said recently, APC did not promise to solve all the country's problems in one year or two years. The mandate the party has is four years and it is pacing itself as it goes along and I am sure that by the end of those four years, we will have a lot more to record.
"It is not by a sudden flight, it will not come by a snap of a finger, but will the promises be fulfilled? Yes, I believe it will be fulfilled. This administration will take Nigeria far beyond how it met it. So if anybody says APC has failed, just tell them it is too early in the day because is a four year-term and this is just two years. You don't reach definitive conclusions in two years."
