He recalled that he promised to tackle insecurity, revive the economy and fight corruption while campaigning for the 2015 polls .

“We campaigned on three major issues, to secure the country, revive the economy and fight corruption,” said the President.

“We have elections next year, politicians are already pre-occupied with the polls, but I am bothered more about security and the economy,” he said.
