Owerri – The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday said he would ensure that the Naira was equal to the dollar in value, if voted into office.

Buhari stated this during the South-East presidential rally of the party at Dan Anyima Stadium, Owerri.buhari-Naira

“It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar; this does not speak well for the nation’s economy,’’ he said.

He urged the people to vote for APC, noting that he would ensure that corruption was tackled headlong if elected.

Earlier, Gov Rochas Okorocha had urged APC supporters to vote for the party’s candidates at all levels, noting that a vote for Buhari without support to others at the state would amount to nothing.

Okorocha said Buhari would address the problem of electricity, bring back the kidnapped Chibok girls and promote industrial growth.

He said that Buhari was loved by the people in the region and urged them to elect him and other APC candidates during the March 28 and April 11 general elections.

Former governor of Anambra, Mr Chinwoke Mbadinuju and former Minister of Education, Chinwe Obaji, were formally welcomed to the APC at the rally.

The rally was attended by APC supporters from Abia, Ebonyi, Anambra, Enugu and Imo. (NAN

It heavily depends on the personality of the politician that is speaking. If he is morally upright, no problem but if he is otherwise, there will be problem with the acceptance of his speech.

You are all here running mouth against Dino who is against the pay, whereas Ben Bruce that have been making mouth all these while have change his talk. that nothing can be done on it. now Bruce want to collect his own pay

DickDastardly:
And yet our Dullard Grandpa forgets where he kept his snuff box again

barcanista:
Before the appointment, the previous Ministers were acting in the capacity. There wasn't vacancies

anonimi:
I thought we voted change for better, not so

Or were we supposed to have voted change for more of the same old same?

BackDatAssUp:
You forgot to note that since 1999 there hasn't been any ministerial vacancies as we are seeing with Eustace's administration.

Yaradua's minister still manned their posts until GEJ relieved them and appointed his ministers.

The PermSecs and Directors will empty the treasury of their respective ministries before Buhari finally appoints his ministers.

dougivilla:
Sir, can you please explain what a joint military force means?

These were Buhari's exact statement: “I am inclined, on account of the above, to suggest for Your Excellencies’ consideration that Nigeria retains the position of the Force Commander of the MNJTF for the period of the war effort. This command will be to the effectiveness of military strategy, since Nigeria will be providing the bulk of the troops and the main theatre of the war is on Nigerian soil.”

Your assumptions would have been best if and only if was what the president meant is what you mean!

dougivilla:
Before you finish calling people names, are you aware that PMB said it was a disgrace for Nigeria to have foreign soldiers on our soil to tackle our internal insurgency? Abi you wan see the video??


Apart from the first 'strong' condemnation, what else has your super hero done? Over 600 died already and you are here defending a travelling president in the midst of these deaths smh for you


Your hero is travelling round the world to invite the same foreign soldiers to come and do the same thing, rather than talk about his hypocrisy and your stupidity for embracing such hypocrisy, you choose to call those who dare pick holes in his actions names.


What name fits you??

Jorussia:
.The deputy speaker is not a force to be reckon with in the house of representative. If lasun couldn't sponsor a single bill in four years, then i think he should do the honorable thing by resigning as the deputy speaker of the Federal house of representative. I believe that Gbajabiamila was a better candidate than dogara as speaker of house of representative.Any time,i watch gbajabiamila speaks on the floor of the house, i am always very excited, because he adds immense intellects and History to any motion or bill being discussed.

acorntree:
People failed to realise that Nigeria problems was not caused by Gej.Every sectors of Nigeria economy have crashed. Everyone is an icon of corruption.Greediness, nepotism, tribalism are our major problem. I'm still waiting to see miracle PMB is going to perform on this entity called Nigeria.

Once you see the guilt ones you will know

barcanista:
He may be saying these because he was denied the chance to represent his constituency in Katsina state house of assembly.

His action and those of the army are embarrassing to the country.

Sunnybobo3:
Proof from our criminal code Act that stealing is different from corruption.


Stealing;

koligs:
I prefer to believe the rumour about them not going to church than to believe this......

cramjones:
PMB has shown so much class and resilience in the face of political jesters. Did he goof by saying West Germany? Yes, but who doesn't? Do we refer to NEPA instead of PHCN? Yes - so what's the difference? Is Merkel a Nigerian name? No. So why must PMB be subjected to pronounce it right?

Again, we must desist from calling the president names. What in the world is "Daura President"? This must stop! Let us join Hands and support PMB who means well for the progress of this country!
