This man cannot help Nigeria, sentiments aside. With utterances like "I'll stabilize global oil prices" and "make the naira equal to the dollar", this man clearly doesnt know what he's talking about anymore. This man really has no grasp of national/international issues. These problems are largely a result of global events and out of the country's hands. It's a global problem and we're not the only ones suffering from it. So, why is he making it seem like it's the government's problem? If nigerians elect this man, there'll be serious wahala in the country.

THE presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Maj.-General Muhammadu Buhari, has assured Nigerians of his neutrality on religious issues. He urged the electorate not to be bothered by the propaganda tagging him an Islamic extremist.

In a grand finale south-east rally speech at the Imo International Conference Centre (IICC), Owerri, Imo State capital on Monday, Buhari, accompanied by the governors of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, Rivers, Chibuike Amaechi, Lagos, Babatunde Fashola, APC chieftain, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, former governor of Anambra State, Dr. Chris Ngige, and other party chiefs, noted that in past elections as a presidential candidate, he picked Christians as his running mate, wondering the reasons for the hate campaigns against him.

According to him, he was worried why in the last 16 years, the nation’s economy has experienced a great downturn orchestrated by the “high level of corruption, insecurity and decay in infrastructure among others,” adding that he would address this if elected into office.

His words: “The case of religion as a vote against me cannot hold. Now you have to cough out N230 to get a dollar. In the past 16 years the price of crude oil has dropped from $140 to $50 per barrel. The economy is in doldrums. Everything has failed – security, economy. We are really in crisis in this country.”

Earlier, Rochas Okorocha, had stated the relevance of the people of the south-east in the nation’s politics, stressing that their desire was to ensure that Igbo are not made to go through a total of 28 years before the presidency could get to the zone.

Okorocha decried the alleged sealing off of the premises of Imo Council of Traditional Rulers by security operatives, accusing the Presidency of this action.

He also decried the posting of state commissioners of police from their present posts to other states except the police boss in Imo.

Onu, in his contribution lamented the allegations of Islamic extremism against Buhari. He said the APC presidential candidate is a man of honour, having served Nigeria in various capacity, including being head of state.

Geedhey:
Did i just read right you said obj coward... maybe u need a reality check which administration has been going about pampering every miscreant in the country giving amnesty to militants making a few rich yet the region lies in destitute Boko haram killing people for over 4 years nothing done until this last minute yet he"s so brave like a lion. Oga park one side make i see road. should have just made ur point not spewing trash about obj being a coward
u should learn to observe decorum when addressing someone. yes obj is a coward because he is a slave to the north, he allowed sharia in Nigeria which is the bane of religious crisis in Nigeria. he was always afraid to go against the north even when it is obviously at the detriment of Nigeria. the boko haram u re talking about is a product of sharia. the oil wells at the hands of northerners made a very infinitesimal people rich in the north like danjuma and co at the detriment of millions of poverty stricken northerners I need to end here as I have other things to do.

He assures, but the question is do we believe him? Of course not. He assured us in 2011 that he will not present himself again to contest for this post and yet here he is assuring us again. Whatever he assures now means little or nothing to me. Keep assuring while I keep voting for GEJ

So what are you driving at? Shall we say Goodluck has not changed Nigeria for good? That will amount to being ungrateful to a selfless man, who has looked beyond his selfish interest to transform Nigeria and make it better for all of us. #VoteGEJ

So what exactly is your point? You deliberately keep prolonging and derailing d the post by quoting me. Are you trying to say he has not performed in the past six years as a leader? It is not a secrete that Goodluck Jonathan has been ruling for about six years. Were there trains in the past sixx years? Were there Almajiri schools? YouWin, GIS, GWin, 12 new universities, rehabilitation of roads nationwide and so many others too numerous to mention are parts of Goodluck Jonathan's achievements. Mind you, this is democracy, where decisions making pass through many processes.
