10 Reasons Why Nigerians Should Vote For Buhari As President Come March 2015 by nairabetguru(m): 1:14pm On Feb 23, 2015
Nigerians are free to vote for whoever they like as president. I'm not exactly saying that you should vote for Buhari or Jonathan but I just want to list some positive reasons why Nigerians should vote for Buhari:

Why you should vote for Buhari:
=============
1. He made policies that helped cut importation: Unlike other past administrations, Buhari in his own time made policies that helped reduce Nigeria's dependence on importation and this helped local industries. We need leaders like this again.

2. He is an old man and would be more compassionate: Unlike younger presidents, an older president is more likely to be considerate and more mature in his decisions. He is more likely to be compassionate to people's suffering and misfortunes and is more likely to act when needed to protect the interest of the public.

3. He has military experience: Given the growing level of terrorism and violence in Nigeria, it's only fitting to engage someone who has military experience as president. Buhari might be in the best position to bring peace in Nigeria by putting an end to Boko haram.

4. Nigeria needs a change in government: The PDP government has been in power for up to 16 years now and it's time for another party to take charge given that many Nigerians are still suffering and PDP has not done much to make the country better. Voting for Buhari is a vote for change.

5. Buhari is less likely to tolerate corruption: He is less likely to be corrupt or tolerate corrupt ministers and politicians. He is more likely to prosecute people who have made Nigeria poorer by their corruption.

6. An APC government will want to do better than PDP and this would be good competition: Given that a win for Buhari will mean a change of government, Buhari's party will want him to do more good than the PDP has done just to ensure that they remain in power and that the PDP has no negative remark to make about them by the time their 4 years of power is over. They are more likely going to do projects that would make Nigeria a better place and would encourage people to keep the APC in power after their first term.

7. Nigeria has had a Christian president for more than 10 years: Since the country returned to democratic rule, Nigeria has had more Christian presidents than Muslims and they've held on to power for more than 10 years. Given that Nigeria also has a significant Muslim population, it's only fitting that a Muslim president be given power to rule for at least for equity sake.

8. Buhari is not too money conscious: Unlike his other competitors, Buhari has tasted power before and he is not seen as a money conscious politician as much as his competitors who might just want to get power for the sake of money. Buhari seems to be more concerned about keeping his good name rather than acquiring riches from Aso rock and Nigeria needs men like that.

9. He is a disciplined leader: Buhari is less likely to compromise on his principles or let other people ride him if he becomes president. He is also not the kind of person that follows others but rather a natural born leader.

10. Buhari's adminstration will save more of Nigeria's money: Buhari's government style based on his history is the kind that saves money for the country. He is more likely to have a smaller cabinet and smaller number of offices. He is less likely to be travelling all around the world and lodging in hotels or spending Nigeria's money abroad since he is not that kind of person. When he was military ruler, he spent less money on administration and he is more likely going to do the same if he becomes president in a civilian administration.

If remodelling Nigerian airports nationwide is a wrong track, more wrong tracks are needed in Nigeria.

If boosting Agriculture is a wrong track, we need more wrong tracks.

If building and repairing more roads than all previous administration is wrong track, we sure need more wrong tracks

If bringing back railway is wrong track, we are crying for more wrong tracks

If privatizing the power sector and building more power stations, a beg give us more wrong tracks

If ending the painful quell in fuel station is wrong track, we are weeping for more

If signing into bill FOI is a wrong track, we need more

If having youth at the rein of leadership is a wrong track, please we need more

If women supporting national growth with their brain is wrong track, women say they need more of it

Am hearing summarize in my head. For those who want summary, l will stop here.

Uncle Jona said he underestimated Boko Haram when the terrorist group first emerged.
Uncle Jona said Stealing is not corruption
During Uncle Jona $20 billion is missing
During Uncle Jona Our external reserves about $45b was mismanaged
During Uncle Jona dollar was exchange to naira at the rate of #220 to $1 at black market at today 23-2-2015
During Uncle Jona an ex militant was in position of ARMS procurement for the country
Good day

1. Myself l underestimated a sect without a legal means of funding commanding the kind of followership l read online.

2. Can you prove outside a law court and in a law court that, " stealing is corruption"

3. If you still believe 20 billion is missing, you can believe 72 virgins are waiting for you if you die killing for Allah.

4. External reserve has become a language for everyone. Even those who who are owning their friends as low as 1000 naira.

Now external reserve is meant to serve as a soft landing for naira in case of eventualities like the recent collapse of oil price. If there was no external reserve, naira could have been badly damaged.

External reserve was not mismanaged, but rightly managed.

5. Why should you go to the black market when you can access the real market. Your number one enemy of Nigeria by going to the black market.
$1 is 199 naira at the inter market. Use your ATM, CBN has simplify things for you.

7. If the ex-militant is a Nigerian. That is a welcome development. If the leaders of boko had taken amnesty. A lot of life would have been save, who knows they may have been offered a deal to purchase armour cars. However, ex militant who cash into the business opportunities of the nation is rewarded more than a guy who wait for government free money.
