The Study is on the Social Contract existing between the people of Nigeria and it leader, in the person of President Muhammadu Buhari, which was entered into with effect from 2015, when he was elected the President of Nigeria. The objective of the study is to assess the extent to which President Muhammadu Buhari has fulfilled the promised he made to Nigerians in the area of fighting insecurity and corruption together with the revamping of the Nigeria’s battered inherited economy. The objective was achieved through the analysis of secondary sources of data and other documentary evidences. Based on these, the study discovered that President Muhammadu Buhari inherited an almost failed state in all ramifications, to the extent to which he had to immediately and severely fight corruption and insurgency. The study then concluded that the President is succeeding in the fight against insurgency and corruption together with the revamping of the Nigerian economy.
