What Have We Learnt About Buhari by LFJ: 3:19am On Mar 20, 2011
1.Buhari has held numerous juicy offices, but he has not enriched himself corruptly

2.Buhari has a passion for Nigeria

3.Buhari knows the odds against him, but that has not detered him because he is banking only on the fact that Nigerians will decide this time around if they are fed up with the PDP or not.

4.Buhari is not someone who strives to be politically correct - otherwise, he would have joined the ACN or pick a traditional politician rather than an activist pastor as his running mate

5.Buhari recognises deputies - just like Bakare is a relevant figure in his campaign today, we can remember how Tunde Idiagbon was a relevant figure in his government

6.Buhari is a victim of his love for Nigeria - Sanusi Lamido Sanusi

7.Buhari focuses on priorities of his office and not side attractions; as NNPC and Ministry of Petroleum Boss, he built refineries; as Head of State, he worked vigorously to kill corruption - a reason why he took power; as PTF Chairman, he made sure Abacha did not intefere to deter him from delivering results

8.Buhari is not a candidate of the northern elites; unlike the Atikus and IBBs of this world, Buhari's support is with the northern commoners, not the elites

9.Buhari is not an apostle of do-or-die; this was the infamous Obasanjo declaration. Contrary to popular critics, Buhari never asked riggers to be lynched - he only asked voters not to allow their votes to be stolen. He didn't say how.

10.Buhari was head of state who combated religious extremism; in 1984, he successfully quenched the Maitatsine in the north; unlike the PDP failure to quench Boko Haram; this is a teatament to the fact that Buhari can address the security situation in this country better thanthe PDP.

11.Buhari has NEVER advocated for Sharia in all of Nigeria; he only acknowledge that Sharia is a part of the consitution and he even mentioned that in difficult circumstances, the civil court always overide Sharia which is a legal and constitutional fact

12.Buhari does not have a godfather or godmother - all he wants is to serve Nigerians - ONLY if they allow him.

13.Buhari believes in the rule of law; when he was rigged out of past elections, he went to court for a record 50months. In 2011, he has said, he is not going to court again as this is the last time he will contest Nigerian election.

Buhari was a dictator before becoming a democrat, making him a "democratator" tongue

Buhari has been clinically dead for the past month. Look closely at him during those rent-a-mob gatherings organised by his lemmings. That bony mufugguh is dead as a phucking doornail, I tell you, and he ain't coming back to life till hell freezes over.

A humble person who with no resources is able to win the hearts of millions of Nigerians. GREATNESS OF PURPOSE, SMALLNESS OF MEANS AND OUTSTANDING RESULTS. THE LEADER WE NEED IN NIGERIA. PEOPLES LEADER.

GEJ CANNOT ENJOY 1/100TH OF THE GENUINE SUPPORT BUHARI IS HAVING IF HE WAS NOT AN INCUMBENT,

RIBADU -TINUBU= NONENTITY

WHO IS THE PEOPLES GENUINE CHOICE? BB
VOTE FOR BB FOR REAL CHANGE!!!

A leader who had all te opportunity to enrich himself but never did,imagine that the man does not have a single house in lagos,while he was head of state he only needed to tell RASAKI OR AKHIGBE OR WHOEVER WAS GOVERNOR THEN TO ALLOCATE HIM 10 PLOTS IN VI EXTENSION AND IT WOULD BE DONE.
During his PTF days he could have acquired estates in Abuja and he never did.This 2 issues stand him tall in my opinion
