Abuja – Former Senate President Ken Nnamani said on Thursday in Abuja that Gen. Muhamadu Buhari only called for free and fair elections in the country and not bloodshed. Nnamani said this in an interview . He said based on his understanding of the statement credited to Buhari, the former head of state was not boisterous in his comment. The former senate president urged well-meaning Nigerians not to take undue advantage of developments to create tension in the country, saying opinions such as Buhari’s should be taken objectively. “The way I understood him I don’t think he was being too boisterous because our people responded to that in a way that seemed like he was calling for blood to flow; I didn’t understand him that way. “The way I understood the statement is that if it’s not free and fair it might spell doom for the country, is a kind of prediction but he’s not calling for blood. “I didn’t understand him as calling for blood am not his spokesman by any means, but am only trying to interpret it the way I understood that statement and it is important for us to shoot for free and fair election.” Speaking on Nigeria’s Vision 20:2020, Nnamani said a lot needed to be done for the country to attain the feat. According to him, Nigeria should be growing faster than the 19 most developed economies if it is to join the 20 industrialised countries of the world. “It will be wrong for us to think that in the next eight years we will overtake the countries like Indonesia or India or Korea; it is not possible that we will do it. “We are still battling with our light (power) situation; still battling with the security situation; other countries are doing the same. Our government, as far as I am concerned looks very focused and working hard to solve some of the problems. “But for us to assume that we are going to launch people in the moon in the next eight years and so on and overtake all those countries that we consider highly industrialised nation, it is good to aspire but it should be based on facts.” Nnamani said there was nothing wrong in aspiring to be in the class of the 20 most industrialised economies in the world, but called for proper measures that would help Nigeria achieve such target.

One can always expect Statesman-like utterance and general class from Ken Nnamani. Thoroughly refined chap. Folks should bear in mind that he is a prominent PDP member as well. Yet he is not jumping on the bandwagon , over-dramatising Buhari's utterances, like other mediocrities happy to gain some distraction that moves attention away from their pathetic leadership of Nigeria. 4 Likes |

Thank God that we still have some neutral and fine minds left in Nigeria. People who can rise above the pettiness of politics. I ask, is Nigeria not headed for failure if the 2015 elections are mindlessly rigged? |

Pukkah: Thank God that we still have some neutral and fine minds left in Nigeria. People who can rise above the pettiness of politics. I have nothing but respect for Ken Nnamani. How he breaks rank here is indicative of his quite bravery and resolve. The chap will stand up for what he believes in even if his opinion is unpopular or against the collective pontification of a herd given to attacking others because of blind loyalty to an Indolent President allowing them to "eat" gluttonously. We need more men like Nnamani to speak up so the foolish children everywhere , refusing to grow into adults, will stop boring us with talks of how it is the Yoruba, Hausa and Fulanis alone who stand up for anyone percieved to be an opponent of GEJ. |

Mr. Ken Nnamani!!! Mr. Ken Nnamani!!!!! Mr. Ken Nnamani!!!!!!!!!!!! How does this ; Buhari (Leader and Financier of Boko Haram/Cattlefucker): Mean calling for a free and fair election?! Buhari rigged and lost.. If we put the rigging aside, Jonathan won the election hands down... The Cattlefucker did not even campaign in the East or South-South at all.. And after sniffing glue, and molesting cows, he still thought he would win!! This fhucker needs to be shot in the head!! And Ken, do not align yourself with terrorists.. Ndi Igbo are watching you!! You have started giving off the vibes we got from Late Chuba Okadigbo!! You have been warned.. |

Apesin001: nice talk by Nnamani. Tell mr Gej that 2015 election should be free and fair.Hope you also read the part where he said he believed the Government is very focused and working hard to solve some of our problems. I quite agree with him. People who want GEJ to focus on chasing bombers and corrupt politicians around were dissapointed and thats why they stepped up their bombing campaign. |

Buhari spoke in hausa and not in english. U choose to interpret wat he said base on wat suit u. It has been explained wat buhari meant but ofcourse hatred for buhari won't allow pple to accept it. Ken speaking in defence of buhari means he wants to align with him eh? Do u think is everybody dat is blinded dat is blinded by hatred or sentiments towards buhari? No. Free urseleves from unnecessary high b.p becos an igbo man said simtin different |

What has free and fair election got to do with "Dogs and Baboons soaked in blood". This son of satan is preparing his supporters for another round of blood letting come 2015 because it appears that the blood of innocent corps members killed in the post 2011 general election wasn't enough for them. |

Ken Nnamani is a relatively rare nigerian politician,given d horde of "rogues& rascals" dat populate d 1999-date class.U will always see objectivity,honesty& refinement in his statements;is it any wonder d man has bn out of any political office since he left d senate presidency?Its either he cannot stand dis breed or dey cannot stand his uprightness.I just hope he kps to his dignified path.Despite what pple wud mke Buhari look like,dis man dies everyday wen he sees d rot dis nation is& how easily he can turn things around,his fervent call for free/fair elections does not mean its so only if he wins,but wen u av consistently bn rigged out by d political class& d judiciary in sometimes evn glaring ways,u unconsciously voice out ur innermost frustration& it may come out harshly.Buhari means dis country well,far betta dan d PDP& evn other opposition party members can ever do. |

Detongue: Ken Nnamani is a typical igbo man Because he refused to follow a blind crowd......
Does he have to agree with GEJ's interpretation? The question any intelligent person should be asking is: What is the meaning of the Expression Buhari used? Not the word-for-word interpretation that GEJ's people want to make us believe, but what the expression connotes. Thanks Sir Ken for standing for the truth, EVEN IF YOUR STAND IS UNPOPULAR |
