Former Secretary-General of
Commonwealth, Chief Emeka Anyaoku,Wednesday
told president-elect, General Mohammadu Buhari
that the expectations of Nigerians from the
incoming government were high, urging him not to
fail the people.

The expectations, Anyaoku said, were hinged on
the campaign promises of the president-elect.
Speaking to Journalists during his congratulatory
visit to Buhari at the Defence House in Abuja,
Anyaoku also extolled the virtues of the incoming
president, saying he was a discipline man who was
averse to corruption.

He said: “I had useful discussions with president-
elect, congratulated him on his victory and told
him he’s coming in as president on a very high
wave of expectations throughout the country. I
also told him that the high expectations are based
on the promises he made during his campaign to
the people but more importantly on the general
perception of his character.

“He is perceived as a man with very strong sense
of discipline, a man who is truly averse to
corruption, a man whose lifestyle has been frugal
not ostentatious or opulent and above all a man
who is very committed to the welfare of the
masses. I believe that if his administration
reflects these qualities that the country’s
challenges and problems would be effectively
tackled.”

Asked by Journalists to offer a diplomatic advise
to the incoming government with regards to the
xenophobic attacks in South Africa, Anyaoku
stated that the president-elect should continue
to work with the South Africa president.

He advised Nigerians living in Indonesia to be law
abiding in their host country.

“I think that Nigeria’s relations with the world at
the moment is quite good. We have had a tiff with
the South African situation but not with the
South African government. I think the xenophobic
attacks on foreigners in SA has been condemned
by the SA government.

Na so o

Of course, we are.

Anyaoku truly knows GMB and he didnt hide it. Let the evil people spreading lies about GMB come and hear the testimony about GMB and the reason why most Nigerians preferred him, from a man untainted, like GMB by trappings of high office

"I also told him that the high expectations are based on the promises he made during his campaign to the people but more importantly on the general perception of his character.

“He is perceived as a man with very strong sense of discipline, a man who is truly averse to corruption, a man whose lifestyle has been frugal not ostentatious or opulent and above all a man who is very committed to the welfare of the masses. I believe that if his administration reflects these qualities that the country’s challenges and problems would be effectively tackled.”

Anyaoku is nobody's lackey and he spoke from the heart. I expect the children of bitterness, anger and hate to come and tell us he's Tinubu's boy for speaking as he did

I'm optimistic.....GMB will give his honest best and will not take Nigerians for granted because he has the character, discipline and integrity needed at a tough time like this.

God bless chief Emeka Anyaoku

God bless GMB

God bless Nigerians.

All we need to do is pray for him because if he fails, we are the one to suffer it.

anyaoku has light fire under buhari!
brainless baba onechance has shit in his shokoto because he is empty upstairs
and the whole world (not only america) will know in less than 30 days!

But I thought this guy was seriously rooting for Jonathan. Nothing wrong with that of that's what he wants. But he's talking like he himself knew all along that GMB is the man for the job.

It will be a thing of joy to watch Buhari's government fail terribly.

Haba oga, easy na.
Na wa for u o. I don't like him doesn't mean I can type this, if Nigeria is badly ruled, na we d masses go suffer o. Uwo.

Gentleman sir, Baba needs no reminder of this. He's well aware of Nigerians' expectations.

I know you have the ears of the president, Ebelemi Jonathern, please sir, impress it upon the guy not to completely wreck the economy before he leaves. I know he's been setting landmines, booby traps and IEDs for the incoming president just as much as they desire to see him fail.

The economy is haemorrhaging from crushing debt that stands over 11 trillion as we speak, the SWF and excess crude account have been completely wiped out, yet they are still borrowing. Beg him on behalf of Nigerians not to cause any more damage than he already has. His antics are becoming really worrisome and sickening.

Baba u are in order sir!

keep dreaming

Make dem no kill our general oo.
we also need to support him.

sai buhari

Buhari will work for us.

Can we stop giving airtime to every tom, dick and Harry? Let's all wait till Buhari is sworn in!
Meanwhile your beloved Jonathan couldn't do anything in 6 years. I know you're bitter madam but be realistic the yardstick used to measure the performance of every new administration is at least a 100 days.

.

Him know na

Yeah the expectation is too much, why wount we when a failure almost destroyed our country completely.

My Nigeria
