Is this the man APC is telling us is the best thing since slice bread? Is this the man APC wants us to believe is the best thing for Nigeria? Is this the uncorruptible, educated, fearless leader APC paid e-thugs kept disturbing us about? Even this exact speech he gave was provided on here by an APC paid person and the way they praised it on NL, screaming how great the speech was when they watched it, I honestly thought when he gave this speech, it was beyond excellent. Oh my how wrong was I. Y'all honestly have to be kidding correct?

To be honest, even though I wasn't sold on Buhari, based on all the noise and praises APC ppl did all over the Internet especially NL, I expected wayyy better than this. I honestly expected a man a million times better than this. Are you f2king kidding me? Forget the religious fanatics accusations hanging over his head, it's obvious as heck this man is as clueless as the name they gave GEJ. Even a f2king speech written for by obviously someone else, this man still had difficulty reading it? This man couldn't even pretend to be enthusiastic about it. Smh.

Whoever said Nigerians deserved the kind of leaders they choose is 110% accurate. You all deserve it. No wonder that country is so messed up and don't ever plan on improving.
My God; highly disappointed is an understatement.

There is actually no need answering many of these premature conclusions but i feel your's can be answered since you appear objective sort of, now see the first thing is how old were u when buhari ruled? If you were old enough u would recall that he has no time for words, no time for praises either. At a point people forgot buhari and only talked about idiagbon as he was more vocal though no less active. But i can tell you that the less than 3yrs of his rule touched every single nigerian. more importantly it was a govt THAT NEVER TOLD LIES TO NIGERIANS EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD THE GUN. and i challenge u and anyone reading now to tell us how he got overthrown, he practically walked away when he heard IBB had mobilized and he asked every single security detail NOT TO FIGHT AND DIE FOR HIM. Dodan barracks gate was open when IBB troops marched in, pls go and find out if that is the norm even when a total weakling is inside dodan barracks, yet this man valued the life of others above stay in power. And lastly his performance at PTF is disarming. Let any contractor come here now to tell us whether procurement was transparent or not. Do you know how much money was in ptf? Yet this man did not tuck away any for himself, why donyou think pdp prefer to label him fanatic? Because no other name will stick. Hope you are aware the late Dora came out of PTF? Those were the kind of people working with him. See forget whatever pdp is paying lapthugs to bring up, this man is the next president. I am a christian and fanatically against many islamic practices (check my past posts) but am going to vote buhari. He has no oratory skills obviously but he will get the job done 101%. We once voted an orator and we lived to see him turn a clueless drunkard

Have noticed the difference in those supporting the President and buhari.. Anyone who calls Gej names or rain insult on him his been insulted back by most folks even to the point of insulting the father of the person. All the insult Buhari has been receiving, I don't think any of those supporting him has taking to heart or start insulting the father of the poster because he or she insulted buhari..big difference, GEJ fan take everything personal while Buhari fan are more concerned with change rather than insult.

Another candidate will stand no chance against GEJ, it will be a walk in the park for him. Politics is a game of numbers, who better than the general to get in the numbers for the opposition.. I think APC knows this that is why he has been the preferred candidate beside, I tot Mandela was 73 when he became president.

Is'nt it the case that the reason you are having to speculate on his body language is because Buhari is not saying much about how he plans to fix Nigeria which I guess is the point of the topic of this thread?
You re either blind, or deaf not 2 hear or see his speech on paper. Nigeria is like dis because of ignoramus like you.
Re: There Is Little Evidence Buhari Can Fix Nigeria - BBC Will Ross by ogene007: 8:26am On Dec 12, 2014
Lets start engaging these politicians intelligently. Buhari and APC say they will fight corruption, let them tell us how they intend to do that within the extant laws of the land which stipulates fair hearing for all accused. The law places the burden of proof on the state rather than on the accused. The Wole Olanipekuns, Ricky Tafas etc have all become legal experts in exploiting all the loopholes in ensuring that the big thieves always seem to evade justice. I'm sure we can all remember Lucky Igbinedion, Peter Odili, James Ibori etc. So, Buhari and his co-travellers should go beyond singing this jingle of 'I will fight corruption' to actually tell us how they intend to fight corruption under a constitutional democracy. This is because there is obviously no legal structure on ground to catch the big thieves other than small thieves who steal very small millions. Unfortunately, Buhari's associates are amongst the biggest thieves in the system who are obviously out of the reach of the law and he who must come to equity must do so with clean hands and their hands are obviously not clean.
If Buhari and APC were indeed sincere about fighting corruption, they would have used there impressive number in the national assembly in pushing for the passage of the asset forfeiture bill that has been stalled for years in the national assembly. Let them come with the readiness to pass that bill and lets know how President Jonathan would not assent to it. But they won't go near that bill because they know that such a law will put all the big thieves in Nigeria where they truly belong. It is still not late for this very important law to be passed as has been canvassed by EFCC: http://www.punchng.com/news/lamorde-laments-non-passage-of-asset-forfeiture-bill/

Its better to start afresh when things are going bad on a daily basis. How do u explain the level of insecurity, unemployment, dwindling oil prices (this didn't happen in OBJ's era, yet he says he's got good luck, goodluck my foot). Nigeria is malfunctioning on a daily basis, its been ages since we heard any good news. If u have a phone or computer system that is malfunctioning, the first thing u do is to do a factory reset and continue using it hoping it will get better. Buahri is not Nigerians first choice, he his just the RESET button that Nigerians are willing to press to save our country from further declining.
I bet that any person supporting GEJ will reset their phones if its malfuntioning, why not let us reset Nigeria, afterall, Nigeria is more important than any device.

It is you who have not heard any good news in a long time. And sadly, it going by your mindset, you may never hear any good news.

Thank you, my brother. The American & the British governments know GMB is a bad market for their agenda.

They know GMB will not hesitate to sideline & cut them off, just like he did to them in 1984, resulting in the I.B.B coup d'etat in August 1985, which was a C.I.A & MI6 backed plot.

Our concern now should be GMB's safety because we do not need star gazers & astrologers to tell us the C.I.A & MI6 will throw hits at him again just like they attempted in Kaduna.

There's a difference between purposeful leadership and desperate leadership. APC is desperate to take power and I pity anyone who thinks its for a progressive cause.

Insult all you want. Curse with your naked soul. Shout till you loose your voice. Run as fast as light. Die and resurrect. Go on hunger strike. Whatever you like, a Buhari will NEVER rule Nigeria. If that's he's and your dream, then it will only be a dream.

Be careful what you wish for.

You have made a judgment on Mr Buhari based on a single 8 minute speech, non? The problem Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has is that he will be judged based on his speeches and his actions over a 6 year period. How will he fare?

I do not know who will win the presidential election next year. What I do know is that my household and I will NOT be voting for Dr Goodluck Jonathan and the party whose platform he will run on. Never have, never will. But I WILL vote. Just as I always have. As long as there is life and health in me, I will cast that ballot come February 14 next year.

What you do not understand is that the next election is a referendum on the performance of Dr Jonathan and the party he is representing. Buhari is not on trial here. Jonathan is. Buhari isn't the one who has to present a report card to Nigerians. Jonathan is.

As I said earlier, I have no way of knowing who will win the next election. That is up to Nigerians to decide. What is clear is that the 2015 election is a test of the ability of Nigerians to hold their leaders accountable. It is a test of their understanding of the Social Contract. Nigerians have had a number of presidents over the last 15 years running under the platform of the ruling party. Yet their country's infrastructure remains very poor. Incomes are low and over half the population lives below the poverty line. Hope and time are fast ebbing away for an entire generation that thought it would rise above the failures of its predecessors. And worst of all, the leadership of the current administration (like all the other PDP governments before it) remains morally deficient and thoroughly compromised. The "I don't give a damn" and "stealing is not corruption" comments are still ringing in my ears as I type this - in serious countries, such statements by a sitting president would have brought down the government in a matter of days. Nigerians however, stood idly by. Or did they? Will they take their revenge next February?

It is up to Nigerians to decide how they wish to live. To those young people on here who desperately want jobs and livelihoods and yet proudly announce that they will not be voting next year, I ask you: has Abba Moro or the Ministry of Internal Affairs refunded the money collected for the immigration recruitment exercise that cost so many young and not so young lives? Has somebody paid for the criminal negligence that led to the deaths in that stadium?

Nigeria - your future is in your hands.
