Not really, it's having the head to disssect it. I must add that Buhari is a deep thinker and an analytical mind is needed to fathom the meaning of the quote.

In literal sense
"I am for the people, my service is to the people (everybody) and I live for the people BUT I cannot be controlled by anyone (nobody). In short, I am a leader".

Typing...

Let's annalyse his speech and their possible meanings.

1''I belong to everybody and I belong to nobody''
What a Weighty statement meaning Synchphants, back off!!!! Political hawks - back off!!!! Tinubu backoff!!!! The Papa Clark of the political world - back off!!! OBJ - backoff!!!! ACF - backoff!!! Tanoids Backoff!!!

2''There will be no paying off old scores. The past is prologue''

Meaning the Past is the Past. I have forgiven all those who think I will now use my power to witch hunt them. General IBB take note I won't attack you for keeping me in prison from seeing my mother when she died or attending her burial. I have forgiven you.

Is this not, what Christians and religionist call a forgiven heart? A rare gesture ?


3''The blood of those great ancestors flow in our veins''
We are Nigerians, and still capable of bringing greatness like great Nigerians of blessed memory which includes:
1. Sir. Ahmadu Bello
2. Shagari
3. Is there any other great leader? None. I can pass.


4''I will not have kept my own trust with the Nigerian people if I allow others abuse theirs under my watch''
I will ensure that political leaders and my aides are held accountable to the law and to Nigerians at large. This somehow tallies with first quote "I am for everybody"

5''We have an opportunity. Let us take it''. ,
A great leader is here, time for change has come, time to move Nigeria from bad to good. Time where the masses will have a say. It's time. Opportunity comes but once ( in buhari's case we experiencing it twice.During his military regime and now ). Let's make judicious use of this time.
