Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) Babachir Lawal, has reeled out reasons why Nigerians should re-elect President Muhammadu Buhari.

Mr Lawal was expelled from office over his involvement in diverting funds meant for people displaced by the Boko Haram insurgency.

The Presidential Initiative for the North East (PINE) headed by Mr Lawal became a centre of corruption and rot with companies raking in, through fraudulent procurement process, billions of naira and paying kickbacks to the embattled cabinet secretary, according to bank documents and a report of the Senate Committee on the Mounting Humanitarian Crisis in the North-east.

Since he was last picked up and released by the Economic and Financial Crimes (EFCC) earlier this year nothing has been heard about when his trial will begin.



Addressing pressmen on Monday in Abuja, the former SGF said his former principal should be re-elected because he has performed beyond reasonable doubt.

He said the president had done so much for the country, adding that before he (Buhari) assumed office, the people of Adamawa were being held captive by Boko Haram sect.

“I know very well that President Buhari has done very well to be re-elected over and over again, I wonder whether those still in doubt have not seen infrastructure, construction and other things he has been doing,” Lawal said.

“I challenge those in doubt to come to Adamawa to see things for themselves.

“Before his coming into office, I could not go to my village, I could not go to my farm or to my local government, but the situation has changed.

“Now, I can drive to my house even at 2 a.m, I can visit the remotest corners of the village with my family. I go to my farm in the forest and come back safely.

“If you have never faced an unsecured situation, you may not appreciate what I am saying,” he said.

Lawal described his removal as a blessing.

“Let me shock you, before I came into government, I have been in business, I was a very successful businessman.

“I am a world renowned IT consultant and I have a very large farm, spanning over 1,000 hectares, which I abandoned to join governance.



“I was earning N930, 000 monthly as the SGF, now that I have returned to my farm and reactivated it after my sack, I now have 4,000 hectares under cultivation.

“Last year, I earned close to half a billion naira from my farm proceeds, I have a cattle ranch that I am developing gradually and I am back to IT consultancy, life is now good,” he said.

Lawal said everybody who saw him now, complimented him, saying he was looking good and healthy.

So under how many months you have made upto 500million? Someone who was sacked about this time last year?

The EFCC will not see him, if it was from opposition parties, they will act fast.

Truly this war against corruption is dead on arrival!

What a disgusting epistle.

Renowned IT Consultant my foot.

Dude! Nobody knows you as whatever.

All we know about you is that you are a corrupt element without human feelings.

A man whose anti-corruption fight only goes to the door step of people blocking his second term.
I think back to four years ago and I see a lot of similarities between this man and the man before him.
Jonathan watched oil and other critical sectors suffer while focused on delivering short term projects like university construction, almajiri schools that can aid and boost his reelection chances.
Today we have Buhari sharing money to people who hunger didn't kill for the past four years of alleged suffering.

We deserve better than some recycled degenerated minds trying to hold us to ransom.

Jonathan waited few weeks to election before sharing dollars but Buhari is sharing his right from the middle of his tenure.
Nigeria is now like a loose woman that every indecent man feels entitled to. Everybody wants to 2 rounds of enjoyment with assorock. Pathetic.
