We Must Judge Buhari With His Past-sen Obanikoro by clevvermind(op): 5:16pm On Jan 27, 2015
The immediate past Minister of State for Defence,
Sen Musliu Obaniko has said that Nigerians
should judge Gen Muhammadu Buhari, the APC
Presidential Candidate by his past and not what
his party presents him to be in 2015.
Addressing a rally he organised under the aegis of
the Goodluck Sambo Independent Campaign
Group in Lagos, Obanikoro said Buhari is not
electable.
“We cannot continue to judge Buhari based on
what we think he will do in future. He should be
judged by what he did as a former head of state”
he said.
According to Obanikoro, the assaults committed
by Buhari and his regime cannot be swept under
the carpet.
“His assault on Pa Awolowo, Late Bola Ige,
Former Gov Lateef Jakande among others cannot
be forgotten.
“The worst crime was his stopping of the Lagos
Metro line which would have put Lagos state on
a pedestal of sorts” he said.

On the Buhari certificate saga, The ex Minister
said that the saga cannot be patched up saying
that the APC wanted to patch up the issue but
must not be allowed.

On why Nigerians should vote for Jonathan,
Obanikoro said that the President is serving
Nigeria without discrimination and has helped
Nigeria’s democracy to grow by guaranteeing
freedom of speech for all.

“Jonathan has made Nigeria his constituency and
has never discriminated against any tribe” he
said.

The Senator noted that Nigeria was moving
towards food sufficiency with thee agricultural
policies of the Jonathan’s administration.
He however urged Nigerians to vote for the
Jonathan/Sambo ticket and for Mr Jimi Agbaje in
Lagos state.

“PDP remains the party to beat in this election
and we are sure of victory” he added.

Obanikoro is the leader we need in Lagos not a tout that calls himself Jagaban
