Buhari Finally Speaks! by nokingasgod: 5:31pm On Feb 01, 2015
“Fellow Nigerians, People accuse me of many things. But one thing they never accuse me of is corruption. They never accuse me of mediocrity, or of lying. People accuse me of many things. I have led this country and I have a record. We were not perfect, but we were effective; we solved problems, and we made Nigerians proud. In our government, we fought corruption, we stabilized the Naira, and we shut down insurgency. We shouldn’t forget so soon that there was the Maitatsine ravaging the North east and we dealt with it. We also overran the Chadian rebels. We rebuilt industries, Nigerians queued up and treated each other with respect; Nigerians took pride in our reputation for
discipline. The world admired us. We were proud to be Nigerians.

However, because they can’t attack our record, they accuse me falsely of ethnic jingoism; they accuse me falsely of religious fundamentalism. Because they cannot attack our record, they accuse us falsely of calling for election violence – when we have only insisted on peace. Even as
Head of State, we never imposed Shariah. All my running mates have been either Igbo or Yoruba and are always devout Christian of indisputable repute. I have and will continue to condemn those who burn God’s places of worship, be they churches or mosques and wish God’s
judgment upon them. As your President, their punishment won’t stop there, we will also ensure Boko Haram and other such elements, are found, are arrested and face the full wrath of the law as punishment for their crimes against our country.

My dear friends, this is very important to note: It doesn’t matter if you are Igbo,Yoruba, Ijaw, Hausa, Idoma, Efik, Ekwere, Urhobo, Igala and, no, it does not matter if you are Christian, Muslim, animist or atheist: we need a new direction under a new leadership. The task ahead will be challenging and daunting, but it is surmountable. This is what leadership is about. My only desire is to prove to you that Nigeria can truly work. Allow me prove to you that in your lifetime, you can be proud of this country.

Let me make you this promise today: We will protect your children. We will protect your wealth. We will make this country work again. This is why I am running for the office of the president of Nigeria. This is my promise.” – Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR).

Lol.. I take it he hasn't read Wole Soyinka's presentation at least. That is of course assuming the 'people' accusing there means 'celebrities'.

If it means 'common man', then he hasn't been listening to the right source.
Re: Buhari Finally Speaks! by saintikechi(m): 6:02pm On Feb 01, 2015
Its a lie !!! Where is the source? Did he tell the Op this in his bedroom? Besides buhari is corrupt, he lied under oath, he is a starck illiterate, at 73 he is too old to govern and we are nolonger in the military era so he has nothing to offer.

Don't mind Barcanista and his maradonic master. IBB played more tricks than these, he's been confined permanently to his mansion in Minna. Buari's defeat on Feb 14 will shut him up forever.

Just as GEJ has been craftily avoiding the issue of the chibok girls in his campaign and the 15,000 people killed and those displaced during his tenure. I forgot the billions of dollars missing and his army of corrupt individuals. GEJ should submit his resignation letter ASAP

No need to waste one's time looking for what's not lost. Don't sit in the corner of your room thinking you know better than the govt and security agents. By the time Boko haram and their political sponsors are fed up, they would bring out the girls from where they are hidden now that it dawns on them that Jonathan will contest and win this month's election. With regards to the "missing" dollars, go and ask Sanusi, APC's fake wistle blower to tender his evidence in the court or shut up forever. Ok?
