Buhari Finaly Speaks by inception101(m): 6:45pm On Feb 05, 2015 |
“Fellow Nigerians, People accuse me of many things. But one thing they never accuse me of is corruption. They never accuse me of mediocrity, or of lying. People accuse me of many things. I have led this country and I have a record. We were not perfect, but we were effective; we solved problems, and we made Nigerians proud. In our government, we fought corruption, we stabilized the Naira, and we shut down insurgency. We shouldn’t forget so soon that there was the Maitatsine ravaging the North east and we dealt with it. We also overran the Chadian rebels.We rebuilt industries, Nigerians queued up and treated each other with respect; Nigerians took pride in our reputation for discipline. The world admired us. We were proud to be Nigerians. However, because they can’t attack our record, they accuse me falsely of ethnic jingoism; they accuse me falsely of religious fundamentalism. Because they cannot attack our record, they accuse us falsely of calling for election violence – when we have only insisted on peace. Even as Head of State, we never imposed Shariah. All my running mates have been either Igbo or Yoruba and are always devout Christian of indisputable repute. I have and will continue to condemn those who burn God’s places of worship, be they churches or mosques and wish God’s judgment upon them. As your President, their punishment won’t stop there, we will also ensure Boko Haram and other such elements, are found, are arrested and face the full wrath of the law as punishment for their crimes against our country. My dear friends, this is very important to note: It doesn’t matter if you are Igbo,Yoruba, Ijaw, Hausa, Idoma, Efik, Ekwere, Urhobo, Igala and, no, it does not matter if you are Christian, Muslim,animist or atheist: we need a new direction under a new leadership. The task ahead will be challenging and daunting, but it is surmountable. This is what leadership is about. My only desire is to prove to you that Nigeria can truly work. -General Muhamadu Buhari (rtd) 1 Like |

For a long time, members of the All progressives Congress (APC) have desperately been claiming that the government of President Goodluck Jonathan has not achieved anything in the nearly six years it has been in office. To replace him, they have projected serial presidential aspirant, General Mohammadu Buhari to replace him in the February 14 elections. But it is interesting to note that Buhari and his team in APC have been able to travel to their campaign grounds in some parts of the country via the newly rehabilitated railway system which is initiatives of the Jonathan government. Recall that the same rail transport system was destroyed and practically left for dead by General Buhari during his sojourn as military Head of State. People are wont to ask: What if President Jonathan had not taken the bull by its horns to breathe life back into the rail system? Would Buhari have been able to attend his rallies where he takes ample time to discredit the achievements of President Jonathan? While commissioning new trains last year, The president had lamented the total neglect of such a critical system of transport by successive governments. Although he did not mention names, every Nigerian knows it was Buhari’s government that destroyed the Nigerian Railway Corporation between 1984 and 1985. Speaking during that ceremony, President Jonathan has promised that “The step is aimed at resuscitating and revitalising Nigerian railway which had suffered neglect for decades.” That decade began when Buhari was in power. But strangely, the same Buhari is riding on one of those trains to campaign for election to replace the same man who had brought the trains back to life after he had sent them to the gallows.
