I’ll Continue As Baba Go Slow Until I Retrieve Every Stolen Money – Buhari by Adeitanajoke(f): 5:34am On Dec 26, 2018


President Muhammadu Buhari said on Tuesday that he was not shaken by critics who called him Baba Go Slow because of his insistence that stolen money must be followed and retrieved, no matter how long it would take.

The President spoke in Abuja when he received a delegation from the Federal Capital Territory community on a Christmas visit to the Presidential Villa.

Making a specific reference to his 2019 re-election campaign, Buhari stated that the focus had not changed from what the All Progressives Congress outlined in 2015 for that year’s general elections.

He said his campaign focus remained on the tripod of fighting corruption, insecurity and improving the economy.

The President is expected to launch his re-election campaign on December 28 in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital in the South-South geo-political zone.

The other zones, North-East, North-Central, North-West, South-West and South-East, will follow in subsequent dates.

Buhari said, “The party (APC) nominated me and I will contest. We are watching the Independent National Electoral Commission very seriously and we are going out very soon.

“We will go from geo-political zone to geo-political zone, to remind the people of our promises in 2015. There are three fundamental things. Security comes first, because you have to secure the country before you can govern it. Talking about what we have done regarding securing the country, the people of the North-East know better. The three fundamental things we campaigned with are still very relevant.

“On improving the economy, which we are still going to explore, we have done well in agriculture. Those who embraced farming are not regretting it. We have also addressed unemployment and we are very lucky. Through that, we are now attaining food security.

He added, “The third thing with which we will campaign is the issue of corruption. I told you what I did when I was in uniform. But now when I have to go by this system (democracy), where people have to be arrested and then prosecuted, taken to court and then with evidence, we will collect back what they had taken illegally.



“For doing that, people are calling me Baba Go Slow. I am going slowly, but whatever the case, I will not stop pointing fingers at those who have abused trust by taking money that does not belong to them.

“Fighting corruption. Yes, we are slow because the system is slow. It is not Baba that is slow, but it is the system. So I am going by this system and I hope we will make it.”

The community was led by the Minister of the FCT, Mohammed Bello.

The minster, while speaking earlier, praised Buhari for his performance so far, adding that the residents of the territory were proud of him.

Bello said, “We pray that God Almighty will continue to grant you good health, strength, capacity, ability and patience to continue to lead us to the promised land.

“On behalf of the FCT, we appreciate you for the good work you are doing for the territory. Just last week, you inaugurated for us a new airport terminal and so many road projects that are going on in Abuja.

“We feel highly delighted to be hosting you here and it is my honour on behalf of the FCT community to assure you that we are solidly behind you and by the grace of God, we look forward to you spending another four years in the State House.”

The Primate of Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), Nicholas Okoh, who was on the delegation, said he was elated that Buhari had regained his full health.

U can't be doing things the same way and expect a different result. It's obvious your slow movement has not produce any reasonable results and u insist on slow movement. That shows you take the 15 million people that voted for you for granted. Show working please, u said u are fighting corruption at our detriment (because hunger wan finish person for this country), how much have u bn able to recover? What happens to workers welfare because u are showing little or no interest.

This statement from Buhari about fighting corruption until every kobo is recovered should give everyone shivers!

That may mean in his second term he would probably be far more aggressive in his war against corruption holding no prisoners. He may feel his war against corruption in itself is the cure all to the country's ills.

First and foremost it is sheer fantasy if Buhari believes he can recover 100% of what was stolen. It sheer fantasy if he can even retrieve 5% of what was stolen!

Any draconian war against corruption will hurt the economy. It will bring it crashing down.

This is not just locking up the shop and chasing criminals but selling all the goods inside and using the proceeds to chase criminals. It is akin to catching two birds at once.

This is his second term and he can now bare fangs and show more of his true colours knowing he is no more coming back

The sad truth is that Buhari isn't interested in fighting corruption.

Buhari is a corrupt Scam that deceived Nigerians into believing his FAKE integrity mantra.

Even Obasanjo jailed his own IG of Police for corruption, GEJ removed Stella Odua on "allegation" of corruption.

What has Buhari done to BabaChir, Baru, Ganduje, Tinubu, Orji Uzor Kalu, Amaechi,Wamako, Akpabio, Abdulaziz Yari, Modu Sheriff, Nurianu etc?

All these people have been proven to have stolen government funds meant for development of Nigeria. Yet, Mr integrity - Buhari dines and wines with them as if they are decent human beings?

Buhari is a BIG SCAM! He will sweet-tongue Nigerians again with a thousand fake promises that he has no intentions of keeping.

How has recovery of looted funds become a government cardinal focus when there are so many developmental projects to do in the life of a government.

I believe a government that has a well thought out plan would empower the appropriate agencies to handle the issues of recovery while they focus on the main things.

In this shambolic 'Willy Willy' government they use stolen funds recovery as strategy to waste precious time and act as though they are working hard.

No one takes them seriously, they want to deceive us again into following them to nowhere. We will not do that mistake again.

The mere fact that in the whole party they could not find any other candidate to contest with Jubril alias Bubu shows the dictatorial nature of the party which has played out in this last three years. They are the cult like party, nobody cares to challenge or have a different view from the cult leader Jubril Al Sudan alias Bubu. Now he is claiming to be baba go slow. That is a big fat lie, he is not and cannot be. We cannot continue like this in 2019 please. We must dump the two men madam Aisha mentioned in APC and their voodoo party that has caused this blessed country so much pain, agony, bloodshed, embarrassment and backwardness.
