Buhari Finaly Speaks by harizonal123(m): 10:24pm On Mar 26, 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-to-be , 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
