I’m not in this race for power, money – Buhari by MichaelSokoto(m): 8:45pm On Mar 26, 2015
Presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), has
said he is not in the race for power or money.
He says he is in the race in response to the yearnings
of Nigerians for an improvement on their lives and
the betterment of Nigeria.
Buhari said this in Abuja on Thursday in what was
said to be his last media briefing before the crucial
election.
He said Saturday’s election presents Nigerians a great
opportunity to end impunity and incompetence in
governance.
The APC candidate noted that 16 years under the
Peoples Democratic Party remained a story of
despair, despondency, disillusionment and pervasive
fear, caused by unprecedented insecurity.
He said the basic functions of the government such
as the security, welfare and happiness of the citizens
appeared only on the pages of newspaper.
According to him, it is morally wrong for any
government that has woefully failed in these basic
responsibilities to demand or expect another
mandate from the disillusioned citizens of Nigeria.
Buhari said, “I am not contesting this election
because I want power and money. I am doing so
because Nigerians believe I have what it takes to
achieve the much-needed change. When the people
express confidence in your ability and integrity to
lead them, you have a responsibility to answer the
clarion call to national service.
“The presidential election this Saturday, March 28,
2015, presents a great opportunity for Nigerians to
come out en-masse and vote to remove an
incompetent government from office. The beauty of
democracy is that it gives power to the people to
change the government peacefully.
“The PDP administration has exhausted all its
goodwill and lost all the argument on performance
and competence and is, as a result, seeking to retain
power at all costs, regardless of performance, which
is a shameless reflection of desperation and greed
for power.
“A government that abandons its citizens to their
fates has no reason to remain in office a day longer than necessary".

We know you are not. That is why we want you in power! It's got to be you, General!

We are tired of these petty thieves parading themselves as "leaders!"

Why don't u sponsor someone else with a credible record since u knw u have once tried and fail to change nigeria futune. Even if u manage to b elected because of the tribal level created by u, u will not rule a peaceful nigeria. because u are teaming with other majority to cut short our minority. I'm with GEJ till death

You're in it for revenge, we know that already.
But pack your things and take your 150 cows along.
Since you want to be "president" by all means, try ANN president(Association of Northern Nomads).

A simple upright man who every looter and criminal is terribly afraid of.

A vote for Buhari is a victory for Democracy and the Nigerian Masses. Let's give Buhari a chance.
