I write this because of millions of Nigerians who
are below 30 and who constitute a significant
chunk of our voting population. This is the ICT generation that is largely ignorant
about the events of the General Muhammadu
Buhari era (1984-85) and so can be misinformed
and misled by needless propaganda. I have sat with many in the under-30 bracket
and those slightly above who only have faint
recollections of the Buhari era and the level of
ignorance about that era is amazing. Before being MILITARY Head of State, General
Muhammadu Buhari had been Governor of one
of the Northern States (under General Olusegun
Obasanjo’s Military government) as well as
Minister for Petroleum. He later served as
Chairman of PTF under General Sani Abacha. Please consider the following unassailable facts: ��He birthed and supervised the establishment
of our existing refineries. ��There was no religious crisis while he was
Head of State. It started under his successor
Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida regime! ��In his time as Head of State he reduced
inflation from 23% to 4%, by fiscal discipline
and a homegrown economic team (not achieved
under any other era, even military). ��Jerry John Rawlings of Ghana took over 2yrs
before him, and killed all the corrupt leaders,
while Buhari only sentenced the corrupt leaders
here to prison. ��Under his watch as PTF Chairman, what he did
in road construction in that short period hasn't
been matched by almost 16yrs of the PDP rule. ��Hospitals and universities around the country
never witnessed as much benefits as they got
from the PTF from any government after or
before his time. ��Despite serving in senior capacity in the oil
sector, first as Minister for Petroleum and then
Petroleum Trust Fund, Buhari has no petrol
station, much less a rig, refinery or an oil block
like so many of our leaders. ��He could have retired into nauseating
opulence like most of his counterparts (IBB or
Danjuma or even OBJ) but didn't. ��Instead of hobnobbing with the high and
mighty, he has cast his lot with the ordinary man
most of who follow him out of hope and belief
in his values. People who know him have said of
him... "All I need from Buhari is his word, I can
take it to the bank". ��He is the only politician in the country today
who fills rallies without renting a crowd. The
Kaduna rally of 2nd March is eloquent proof! ·He refused to collect an allowance while serving
as Chairman of the PTF because he said since he
was already drawing a pension from
government, his conscience would not allow
him to draw another salary from the purse of the
same government. ��He is the only former head of state that does
not own property or land in Abuja . ��Every attempt to rubbish him through probes
in time past eneded up vindicating him! ��The man who was asked by Olusegun
Obasanjo to take over the running of PTF before
it was scrapped with the aim of probing and
indicting Buhari, was the one who ended up
being prosecuted for misappropriatin g $100m of PTF funds! Buhari again, was
vindicated ��He has OPENLY challenged those who accuse
him of religious fundamentalism to come out
and show proof. No one has till today, taken up
the challenge. His personal driver of many years
is a Christian from Plateau State! ��His government initiated the War Against
Indiscipline and Corruption that has made
environmental cleanliness, queuing up, not
urinating by the roadside etc features of our
national life even till today. Does it then surprise you why corrupt people
would be spreading such heinous rumours
about General Muhammadu Buhari? He is a threat to them and they know what he is
capable of doing to corruption and corrupt
people when he comes into office! So shine your eyes and make the right decision. If honesty and probity are the things you want
for Nigeria, now is the time to choose right. Now that you know better, will you please
educate anothers BY FORWARDING THIS TO AS
MANY AS YOU CAN!!!
