Tale Of The Tape- How Buhari’s Age Measures Up Against Other Wolrd Leaders by Delydex: 7:14pm On Oct 15, 2014
GEN. BUHARI: Dec 17, 1942- 72years

S/N COUNTRY HEAD OF STATE DATE OF BIRTH AGE
1 USA Barack Hussein Obama II Aug 4, 1961 53
2 FRANCE Francois Hollande Aug 12, 1954 60
3 RUSSIA Vladimir Vladimirovich
Putin Oct 7, 1952 62
4 CHINA Xi Jinping June 15, 1953 61
5 EGYPT Abdel Fattah el-Sisi Nov 19, 1954 60
6 CANADA Stephen Joseph April 30, 1959 55
7 UNITED KINGDOM David Cameron Oct 9, 1966 48
8 JAPAN Shinzo Abe Sept 21, 1954 60
9 KENYA Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta Oct 26, 1961 53
10 UKRAINE Petro Oleksiyovych Poroshenko Sept 26, 1965 49
From the above, it is obvious that Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, former military ruler of Nigeria from December 31, 1983 to August 27, 1985 and presidential aspirant for 2015 under APC is the oldest of all these world leaders. This is yet another clear reason why Buhari is not fit to rule Nigeria again, no average Nigerian would ever want to vote for an old man of about 73 years as President. He should better leave it in the hands of the younger generation and play the role of an elder statesman like Ibrahim Babangida, Abubakar Abdulsalam and Yakubu Gowon.
As one of his close political associates Mallam Nasir El Rufai said sometime ago: ‘I was 25 years old when Buhari was head of state and I’m now 50 he still wants to be Head of State. I don’t understand that. And if you ask him, he will think Blackberry is a fruit’- SUN, MARCH 25, 2012.
Recently, Governor Musam Kwakwanso media aide corroborated El Rufai when he said: ‘Now in as much that Buhari is a man of integrity, you will also agree with me that age is not on his side. He is 72 going 73years and ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar is about 70 years old’.

Buhari and Atiku are too old. They have both ruled Nigeria before. APC should find a better candidate to defeat GEJ and PDP

Well, I rather vote a 72 year old GMB than reelect GEJ, no hell no!
