Buhari in Imo State



Copy and post the quote from Buhari validating yours and the claim of the Journalist.

PDP and their agents can their head on the wall, it does not change the Fact that Buhari did make the comment that PDP has spent millions to propagate.

The lies and hate campaign again Buhari is one reason Nigerians kicked out Jonathan.

I can bet that your "all progressives confidence" grandpa will be worse than PEJ. We shall see how it goes when he begins to honour invitations from world leaders. I just hope somebody will continually be by him to remind him that he is from Nigeria.

Even if he did, it's not entirely impossible. At a certain time in Nigeria's history the Naira was higher in value to the Dollar. But people should stop propagating lies just because they lost an election.

This is about "₦1 = $1" Lies that is being spread by PDP and their agents.

If you have any false allegations against Jonathan you wish to clarify, create your own thread and we can discuss it. But knowing this one is false, start first by accepting the truth.

From that same source, let me paste the full article here for every one to read



Please slowly and articulately read the article AND TELL ME WHERE BUHARI SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED HE WOULD MAKE A NAIRA TO ONE DOLLAR!

I believe you have basic education to understand what i am saying.

Instead you should be denouncing Junk Journalism and useless reportage based on hate and calumny, look at you here still jumping on that stale old jonathan's slander propaganda.

Remove that hate from your heart, and lets all support Buhari. Is there any need to still cry over spilt milk? Would you want to destroy what nigerians have built together, or dont you have kids and family to think about?

Stop Your Hate campaign now and stop spreading misinformation
Owerri – The All Progressives Congress (APC)
presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari, on Monday said he would ensure that
the Naira was equal to the dollar in value , if
voted into office.

Truth has to be repeated constantly

Wouldn't it be easier to upload the video to show he said something else in his speech? At the moment, both sides are relying on media reports or interpretations of the speech.

It is incumbent on those insisting they know exactly what Buhari said in his speech to provide evidence. This applies to both sides.

The one in quote was the only one he made about the dollar and naira, from which the journalist derived her dubious claims.

Other issue Buhari discussed that day was the state of the economy, security, poverty, mining, etc. He spent the rest thanking the people of Imo state and requested for their support and votes.

So what we are saying here, is that while Buhari decried the dwindling value of the Naira, he NEVER said he will make N1 = $1. Sadly that misinformation came through a journalist that works with News Agency of Nigeria. We are all glad that despite Jonathan deploying all the tools of Government to smear Buhari, Nigerians defeated Corruption eventually. It would have been sad to see Hate Campaign win.

sir, what records are u setting straight. May 29th is about 56days away and you are already defending Buhari.
what does this statement mean :
"I will ensure that the naira is equal to the dollar in value"?

Tomorrow you will also come and tell us that he didn't say that he will stabilize the price of oil.

In as much as we need to support and encourage our leaders, time has come for us to hold them accountable to their campaign promises. So don't come here and try to twist the obvious.

After four years, we shall appraise his performance.....hopefully by then the exchange rate will be N1- $1

God bless Nigeria
God bless our president-elect
God bless his economic team.

The short answer is No. All through the PDP's campaign of hate, we saw many blatant lies being paraded against Gen. Buhari. Twisting of very simple issues and blackmails here and there.

In order not be dragged into false expectations that is not there, I will like this issue revisited.

1. Below is the falsehood deliberately ignited by Vanguard newspaper. For everyone who listened to the speech, Buhari never made such claim. The exact quote from Buhari on the fall in value of the Naira is clearly in bold.



2. It is important to state the the "Abacha is not Corrupt" and "spreading Sharia all over Nigeria" also started like this - A Journalist misrepresenting issues to gain audience or for gratification.

3. While I have the opinion that misconceptions is not limited to one political party, it is important we still present the truth irrespective of the number of time a lie is repeated.

4. Anyone you see who continue asking what President Buhari will make Naira to a dollar, know the person is just mischievous, ignorant or deliberately continuing the Hate Campaign of PDP that cost Jonathan the presidency.

"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free"

Provide us any evidence of actual quote from Buhari that One Naira will be equal to a dollar. Below is what Buhari said:
“It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar; this does not speak well for the nation’s economy,’’

So how does a comment on the sad state of Naira dropping against dollar, equal a vow to make them equal? Tell us and stop repeating the headlines and comments of a paid journalist.

Note: It is not impossible. In Economics, it is called Re-denomination. Ghana did it. But the fact is, Buhari did not make the claim the the journalist attributed to him. Am glad even NTA and AIT are back to reality after months of misinformation.

It is damn too early to start defending that clueless statement from president-elect. Any attempt to fraudulently hoodwink us with grammar will not work. I am saving my money so that soon, very soon I can buy houses in New York. At least with N2m ($2m), I can own a good home in New York.
