Muhammadu Buhari On BBC HardTalk With
Stephen Sackur
SS: Good day Mr. Buhari, welcome to BBC
HardTalk.
MB: Thanks Stephen **smiles**
SS: Now you have declared to contest again, can
we know your agenda Sir?
MB: To grab power from PDP
SS: I mean, your manifesto Sir?
MB: I said to grab power from PDP
SS: Ok, how can you improve the economy?
MB: I will fight corruption
SS: What are your plans for healthcare and
education?
MB: I will stop corruption
SS: What's your plan for housing and urban
development?
MB: I will kill corruption
SS: How can you fix insecurity, especially Boko
Haram?
MB: I will murder corruption
SS: How can you build roads and upgrade
infrastructure?
MB: I will finish corruption
SS: What are your plans for youths empowerment
and agriculture?
MB: I will destroy corruption
SS: Excuse me Sir, why is your agenda centred on
corruption alone?
MB: It’s because the corruption under Goodluck
Jonathan is unprecedented and I'm the only
person that can end it.
SS: Really and you didn't end it during Abacha's
regime when Nigeria was the most corrupt country
in the world in 1997, second most corrupt country
in 1996 and third in 1998 according Transparency
International Report? You quietly served under that
most corrupt government and nobody heard your
voice about corruption.
MB: **his face changes** I beg your pardon
Stephen. Did you bring me here to insult me? Was
this what we discussed when you invited me?
SS: Mr. Buhari, this is BBC HardTalk - a no-hold
barrel interview session. Pls, can you kindly answer
my question?
MB: I ain't gonna answer you (he tries to speak
like an American but with Fulani accent)
SS: Why Mr. Buhari?
MB: Because I wasn't the president then
SS: Ok, that reminds me. During your illegitimate
regime (1983-85), you jailed the following persons
between 70-100 years jail terms even when some
of them did nothing: Alex Ekweume, Sam Mbakwe,
Ambrose Ali, Emeka Ojukwu, Lateef Jakande, Jim
Nwobodo and Fela etc.
MB: They were corrupt. That was why I jailed
them.
SS: What about Ibrahim Awwal - your personal
friend and the then governor of Niger state?
MB: He was not corrupt
SS: Excuse me Sir. Ibrahim Awwal was arrested at
Heathrow airport right here in London with £14m.
You simply placed him under house arrest for few
weeks; the same way you placed Shehu Shagari
(the then president) under house arrest, but locked
up Alex Ekweme (the VP) in Kirikiri. Why?
MB: Ain't gonna stay here and listen to this
f**king bullshit (still speaking like an American)
SS: Mr. Buhari, it seems you're a tribal bigot
because it's on record that you never jailed corrupt
politicians from your region even when they were
the most corrupt.
----------------------------------
At this point Buhari couldn't bear it anymore. He
got up and grabbed Stephen Sackur on his shirt
collar. Met Police invaded the studio and got him
arrested.
The Police said, do you think here is Nigeria where
you threaten "dogs and baboon" or where you
lament that the "fight against Boko Haram is war
against the north"? This is the United
Kingdom...you'll be jailed for assault!
Buhari stops speaking like an American and
switches to Hausa language: Don Allah kada ku
kurkuku ni. Kamar mayar da ni zuwa Nijeriya. Wani
ya kamata don Allah sa ni El-Rufai wayar o.
(Please do not jail me. Just send me back to
Nigeria. Someone should please get me El-Rufai
phone o) LMAO!

A political interest group, the Turaki Vanguard, has asked former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), to withdraw from the 2015 presidential race.

The group, made up of loyalists of the former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, said in a statement on Thursday that Buhari, having contested three times and lost, cannot add anything new to the fortunes of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in next year’s presidential election.

“We are making this call on the former head of state with all sense of responsibility having in mind that Buhari will neither enrich the race nor enhance the political fortunes of the opposition APC which Nigerians hope will salvage their country from the 15 years of death grip and mis-governance of the PDP,” the group said.

Both Buhari and Atiku are among the frontrunners seeking the APC’s ticket for the presidential election.

The group’s call came on the heels of a similar admonition by a popular Islamic cleric, Sheik Ahmed Gumi, who advised Buhari, against running for the president for the fourth time.

In a statement issued by its National President, Oladimeji Fabiyi, the Turaki Vanguard said: “We, the members of the Turaki Vanguard, a political pressure group operating independently of the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, having carefully monitored and observed recent pro-Buhari activities sponsored by the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), hereby call on him to quit the presidential race.”

However, what came as a surprise is the group’s allegation that the ruling PDP, might have been pushing for the Buhari candidacy, because they are sure of defeating him and would be comfortable with his candidacy.

“In making this call, we are mindful of the need for all patriotic Nigerians to help prevent another political ridicule of a former Nigerian leader like Buhari, which would be unavoidable if he continues with his 2015 aspiration.

“We hope the elderly and revered General will heed our advice and those of other respectable Nigerians like Sheikh Ahmad Gumi,” it added.

Manazz:
Why are you halfwits trying to make a big deal out of this pathetic e-poll which like less than 30k people voted in (if its legit)

Especially the PDP halfwits that have been flooding this forum with their junk about GEJ winning the poll right after they kept whining about how e-polls are meaningless

Obviously it matters so damn much to them especially since it's GEJ's aide that actually started the damn poll anyway...

Halfwits keep acting as if everybody doesn't already know those whose votes would actually decide real elections do not give a crap about some internet poll.

BrosPeter:
APC can win all online votes, its the real votes that counts and jonah has that.

overhypedsteve: first of all let me introduce myself by calling you a big phool for putting " pathetic and nigerians in the same sentence" ok now that you know why i am here ( to correct your weak minded opinion) i will now regale you with my superior intellectual resourcefulness by stating clearly to you that there is a reason why every nation have its own news media and one of those reasons is that it defends the international reputation of its host country through the use of propaganda or counter propaganda, take for example BBC may say "nigerian army incompetent and ran from boko haram" now that can be regarded as a propaganda why? Because the nigerian defence information dept have not given any statement to that effect. So when you see a nigerian news service saying " US comes to learn from Nigeria on ebola containment" it might be true or it might be what we call " institutionalized propaganda " just to tell the nigerian public that the competence of the nigerian health workers have surpassed global best practices. So my friend before you call the guys at vanguard pathetic, you must first of all ask yourself " 1. am i intellectually competent enough to understand the detailed intricacies of international journalism? 2. Am i as a single individual in a better position to dictate for the professionals at vanguard what they should and should not publish?
3. What knowledge do i have of the international system and journalism as an instrument in the formation of states policy?
