Nigeria's Buhari says government is short of money

30 minutes ago Africa

His government had inherited millions of dollars worth of debt from the previous administration, he said at a media briefing.

"It is such a disgrace for Nigeria," Mr Buhari added.

The president and his All Progressives Congress won elections in March, ending some 16 years of rule by the Peoples Democratic Party.
