Road To 2015 Elections: Buhari Is Too Old To Rule Nigeria – Bukola Ogunyemi by nigerianvenom(op): 8:24pm On Oct 07, 2014
A blogger, Bukola Ogunyemi, on Sunday wrote
off the chances of a presidential candidate of the
All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd) to add value to
Nigeria as president of the country, reports
Channelstv.com

“I think he is a bit too old, I think his time has
passed and he is of more use to Nigeria and
Nigerians out of the presidency”, he said on
Rubbin Minds.

His declaration to run for the presidency in 2015
is “the worst kept secret in Nigeria’s political
sphere”, he said.

If he is teaming up with Governor Kayode
Fayemi, that will be a game changer. I think
Nigeria needs someone like Fayemi.

He further noted that Buhari “doesn’t have that
vibrancy and is not in tune with what is
happening in Nigeria today. Adding that he has
not provided any reason different from what he
has always provided in his last three attempts to
serve Nigeria.

“I read his speech saying he intends to run for
one last time and I was looking to hear one
major reason he is presenting himself for the
fourth time to serve Nigeria in that capacity and
I still cant find it”, he said

The blogger maintained that Buhari’s declaration
will test the internal democracy mechanism of
the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Do you think his comments are rather too
harsh?

Chai see stupidity at it peak dont just know what to say to you the fact that GEJ was still in high school does not mean he is not capable to be a president. Experience they say is the best teacher.

None of them worth it. All we need to do as Nigerians is to put the steering of this country unto God's hand aside that we'll keep having same story.

Remember! Except the Lord build the house the builders build but in vain, and if not Him that watch the city ....the watchmen are just doing that in vain.

Let pray for Nigeria for good leaders. I know we've been doing that but we should not relent because what's good need prayer, what is yet to be good need prayer.
