Good talk, so the US will now give us those weapons to fight Boko haram and tell us where the Chibok girls are staying from their satellite discovery.

My fear is that Buhari cannot and should not trust those that see Nigeria as a future competitor for African influence. They have and will covertly continue working for Nigeria's collapse. It is simply in their future national interest to see a weak or better dismembered Nigeria.

While Buhari continuously deny the promises he made to Nigerians(Chibok girls, Book haram timeline etc), he had tenaciously held on to those he made to foreign powers, One wonders if he is Nigerian presdent-elect or the NATO's ambassador to Nigeria.

This story is not credible.
lolaxavier:
The President-elect, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on Tuesday said his administration would restore military cooperation with the United States of America.

In an article published by the New York Times in its Tuesday edition, Buhari promised to among other things reformed the military.

The outgoing President Goodluck Jonathan-led administration had cancelled the training component of its military cooperation with the US citing a lack of sincerity on the part of the Americans for its decision.

But Buhari said, “My administration would welcome the resumption of a military training agreement with the United States, which was halted during the previous administration. We must, of course, have better coordination with the military campaigns our African allies, like Chad and Niger, are waging in the struggle against Boko Haram. But, in the end, the answer to this threat must come from within Nigeria.”

Buhari also said he would deploy additional troops in the battle foul away from civilian areas in the south and the north central parts of the country.

In the article, the President-elect said, in the fight to end the Boko Haram insurgency, “We must start by deploying more troops to the front and away from civilian areas in central and southern Nigeria where for too long they have been used by successive governments to quell dissent.

“We must work closer with our neighbours in coordinating our military efforts so an offensive by one army does not see their country’s rid of Boko Haram only to push it across the border onto their neighbour’s territory.”

A member of the Buhari team, who pleaded for anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the media said, “Without being told, you should know that what he is simply saying is that under his administration, the military will revert to their constitutional role of defending the nation against external aggression QED.”

It was also gathered that the military would be overhauled and professionalised while the police would be better empowered to take the leading role in internal security.

According to the New York Times article, which carried Buhari’s byline, the incoming administration will aside from using the military to deal with the terrorists’ threat, it will pay greater attention to counter-terrorism initiatives.

Buhari noted that his administration would seek to address why young people were attracted to join the sect. He identified some of the reasons to include poverty and ignorance.

[b]He said, “Indeed Boko Haram – which translates in English, roughly, as “western education is sinful” – preys on the perverted belief that the opportunities that education brings are sinful.

“If you are starving and young, and in search of answers as to why your life is so difficult, fundamentalism can be alluring. We know this for a fact because former members of Boko Haram have admitted it: They offer impressionable young people money and the promise of food, while the group’s mentors twist their minds with fanaticism.

“So, we must be ready to offer the parts of our country affected by this group an alternative. Boosting education will be a direct counter-balance to Boko Haram’s appeal.

“In particular we must educate more young girls, ensuring they will grow up to be empowered through learning to play their full part as citizens of Nigeria and pull themselves up and out of poverty. Indeed, we owe it to the schoolgirls of Chibok to provide as best an education as possible for our fellow young citizens."[/b]

He observed that Boko Haram feeds off despair, lack of hope that things can improve. The former Head-of State also argued that by attacking a school, and kidnapping more than 200 schoolgirls, it sought to strike at the very place where hope for the futurewas being nurtured, and the promise of a better Nigeria.

“It is our intention to show Boko Haram that it will not succeed,” he said.

The retired army general also promised that his administration would not only defeat the sect militarily, it would ensure that it provides the very education the sect despises to help our people help themselves.

Quoting the late Nelson Mandela, Buhari said the sect would soon learn that “education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

Keep watching with your hate-filled eyes. The rest of us Patriots will look to Buhari for good governance.... Which encompasses a whole lot of things. Including security, power, respect for human rights, a strong anti-corruption campaign and a restoration of Nigerian pride.

If Buhari does not deliver, we vote out APC in 2019.
do u have d population of d north to vote him out? Lol keep deceiving urself

if you can see it, you think Buhari cant? you really believe that the news tidbits you are getting as a casual internet user makes you wiser than someone who has been on the block for decades with access to regular intelligence? some of you conspiracy dudes are never going to grow up...you need everything spelled out for you

Buhari sounds more directional in his efforts to combat insurgency. His plans may not be full proof. It might not be 100% achievable but there is a focus and that's what Nigerians are riding on.

He is yet to start and take the reins of power. Let him have some periods on the throne first to exercise his power before casting doubts. After all, someone was there for six years and never had a clue as to how to stir the nation.
funny how all the folk who didnt support Buhari becoming president are suddenly in "see, I told you so" mode on every piece of news. I read the original article over and over again and the Prez didnt say anything untoward. May you all continue hating for the next 4 years grin

Do you mind listing these five with timeframe?

Thanks!
Am I supposed to list your expectations for you?

You draw up your own baseline list of things Buhari should deliver before you support him. And then hold him to that.

My point is clear: We accept mediocre leadership in Nigeria because we are too easily satisfied. Of Buhari improves power but fails to contain Boko Haram, corruption and oil bunkering, he would be a failure.

Shut that gaping diseased cave under your nose.

Even if I was gay, why the heck would I be remotely interested in a scrawny low class, unhealthy, deranged, dejected, oppressed, uneducated and a social misfit like you?

The law is unjust and will be struck down because it alienates a group of Nigerians.

My interest in this law is not sexual but because I'm a decent and caring human being and not a droopy armed troglodyte.

You, a moronic slowpoke, is the missing link.

America is not interested in Nigerian oil
America is not interested in Nigerian security
America is not interested in Democracy in Africa
America is not interested in Nigeria Military
America is not interested in the health of Nigerians
America is not interested in Nigeria's huge population
America is interested in the promotion of homosexuality in Nigeria
Nigeria is not interested in the promotion of homosexuality
America loves president Derby of Chad
Nigerians hate president Derby of Chad
Americans dont want Nigerian immigrants
Nigerians want to emigrate to America
America wants AFRICOM
Nigeria does not want AFRICOM
America did not want to help Nigeria fight terrorism
Nigeria wanted American help fighting Terrorism


Question 1:
What is the use of America to Nigeria?

Question 2:
Has Buhari not heard of Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank

Question 3:
Would it not serve Nigeria better joining Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank instead of kowtowing to America whose actions these past four years has shown us nothing but unadulterated contempt?

@ cap28, Thoth, deepsight, igbo2011- finally our suspicion of Buhari being a US puppet has been confirmed. Nigeria is finished.
He was over thrown by America in the 80s so I guess he wants to obey America now. Aristede in Haiti was overthrown twice by America.

I am just worrying that he doesn't build a base for America in Nigeria.
