I'm normally a non-partisan, interested only in disproving falsehoods made by supporters of political groups.

But recently, I have been coming across this particular mantra sung by Buhari supporters about the man being the face of anti-corruption. Without any proof provided by these people, I therefore went digging to unearth the facts about his regime and service to Nigeria.

What I discovered is connected to the then accusation of smuggling suitcases out of the country. Take a look...

‘Insurmountable economic problems plagued the Buhari
regime as petroleum prices collapsed in the face of
expanding foreign debt. Buhari instituted austerity
measures that caused severe hardship to the average
Nigerian. In addition, political corruption continued
unabated, with politicians escaping to Western countries
with millions of dollars in government money. In an effort
to stop dissension, Buhari instituted restrictions on the
press, political freedoms, and trade unionists. By August
1985 even the military had had enough, and Ibrahim
Babangida took control of the government. Buhari was
detained in Benin City but was released at the end of
1988'.

I'll also like to be educated on the details of how Buhari intends to fix a democratic Nigeria with his methods from the 80’s… Mature arguments, no insults

Seun... Frontpage please.

Have u eaten this morning ?

I'm apolitical too and I know that no one is a saint. I once saw a documentary about Buhari's involvement in Dikko's attempted kidnap from the UK back then. I think many of his supporters are aware, but people just want change! As in, change!!! Whether it turns out good or bad, history will tell. But methinks many Nigerians are fed up with the present political status quo. Any form of change is acceptable.

I like the way you put it. But I'll only call for a change if continuity can be maintained in part.

It largely depends on what is being continued. Logically, working policies, yes. However, the present atmosphere is rife with ineptitude in so many areas. These things are known, and that's what many people don't want to continue.
