Brother, i can come up with 100 name without blinking but do they have the numbers (voters)? We have had fantastic candidates like utomi, fawehinmi and many more but we have refused to vote them.

Much as i want to agree that our biggest challenge is corruption and Rtd Gen Buhari seem to have a reputation in dealing with such issues,i would want us to situate it in a context.The degree of corruption is 1983 pales into insignificance when compared to NOW. I hate to say this but truth is corruption has become systemic (if not endemic).As such the anti-corruption therapy cannot be the same.
Secondly,anti-corruption therapies in a military regime may not necessarily be relevant in a democracy. Reason being that the structures are different.

When, as my friend, Pius Adesanmi, did in a recent
essay, we raise the uncomfortable question of Buhari’s
association with and reliance on the financial largesse
of corrupt characters to conduct his political campaigns
and surmise, reasonably, that these investors would
populate and insidiously hijack a Buhari presidency to
recoup their investments from the government of a
beholden, impotent, Shagariesque president, his
supporters say this scenario is farfetched and that
their man is impervious to quid-pro-quo arrangements.
We are basically supposed to just take their word
about Buhari and hope that the man will do the right
thing. We are supposed to get on board on account of
this blind faith. They want us to simply trust Buhari to
do right by us if or when he gets into Aso Rock.

Most of us who have no direct personal stake in
Nigeria’s political game clearly see the problem with
Buhari and we will continue to say it even if his
supporters resent us for doing so or do not want to
hear it. Given the desperate need for an alternative to
the current PDP oligarchy, it would be a crime not to
scrutinize, and in doing so, better position the opposition
candidates that are emerging to challenge President
Jonathan.

So, in that spirit of refining and challenging the
opposition to be better than the status quo, here, below,
are my itemized contentions on how Buhari’s political
career, since his entry into elective politics in 2003, has
been largely mismanaged. Implicit in this analysis is
what he needs to do differently to improve his standing
with Nigerians.
