Prince Tony Momoh, is a national leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC ) and former Minister of Information. In this interview with TEMIDAYO AKINSUYI, he speaks on the mood of Nigerians following President Muhammadu Buhari’s reelection and other issues. Excerpts:

President Buhari has won reelection for a second term but many people believe that the euphoria is not there as many Nigerians are not celebrating like they did when he won in 2015? Are you also aware of that?

Whoever said that must have a problem with his memory because the euphoria now is massive compared to how it was in 2015. I have never seen so much celebration in the history of Nigeria elections and I have witnessed a lot of them. Everywhere in Nigeria right now, people are celebrating. How can anybody say the euphoria now is low when compared to how it was in 2015? In any case, we have a state by state scenario when you have events being acted out. We have never had so much spread by opposition in the history of Nigeria. Buhari won in all the traditional areas. He won in the North-West; he won in the North- East, I think he won in the North-Central. In 35 states of Nigeria, he has 25 percent. He also has more than 25 percent in Abuja. The difference between his total votes and Atiku’s votes is almost 4 million. So, how can there be better result or spread than we have now? In 2011, in the whole of the South-South and South- East, he did not have up to 10 percent except in Edo state. He didn’t even have up to 25 percent in Edo state. In 2015, he had 46 percent in Edo state. He did not have up to 10 percent in all the states of the South- South and the South- East in 2015. Now, he had 25 percent in all the states of the federation in Nigeria, including the FCT. So, why won’t there be much celebrations? Those saying Nigerians are not celebrating his victory like they did in 2015 are not saying the truth.

What are your expectations from him during his second term; which areas do you want him to give priority?

A lot of people don’t want Buhari to return for second term because of his strategy. There are lots of things he is waiting to do if reelected. He will attend more vigorously to the fight against corruption. In fact, Buhari follows principle and due process religiously. Nobody is too close to him not to deal with if the person misbehaves or derails, especially when you want to have shortcuts to things you are not entitled to. When I was the National Chairman of Congress for Progressives Change (CPC), someone offered us vehicles for campaign and said ‘If you win, what will you do for me?’ Excitedly, I went to meet Buhari for him to endorse it. But he said ‘Sorry Mr. Chairman, I cannot give out what doesn’t belong to me’. The man who promised us the vehicles then took it away. That is Buhari for you. Here is a man who refuses to take his full salary because he said he is being fed in Aso Rock. Look at the benefits or pensions they give to former Heads of States. He said he can’t accommodate all that. I am not quite sure that when he assumes office for his second term, he is going to be very happy with senators or public officials taking what is not their due. He will beam his searchlight on everywhere. So, Nigerians should look forward to many people crying because they have no access to free money. He will even do more to ensure that people return what they have illegally taken whoever you are. That is why these people don’t want him to come back because they know him as a strategist. He is waiting for his reelection before he deals with many of them.

Imagine Atiku begging Buhari to unfreeze looters account, and you think we didn't dodge a bullet by rejecting him.

No more room for corruption in Nigeria.

The branded looters are up for another game with Buhari for the next four years. There is fire on the mountain.

Election is almost gone guys but your business and ideas are more inportant to me. Get your website/blog/software today. Check my signature for my contacts.

We are watching Buharig

Exactly why we wanted him in for a second term. He is the only one that can stand them toe to toe.

Very good.

Looking forward to the day these powerful looters will be behind bars.

Ant to all pigs who might be talking about apc/cabals, hold your peace, successive administrations should be acting as checks to their predecessors. So when buhari and the so called canals are out of power, let the successors check them.

Like Tinubu?

TIGRITIS:

Good morning my fellow Nairalanders, about one week ago, i asked for financial assistance here on Nairaland, some people sent money to me while some people rained abuse on me but I pray that God will not let you find yourself in my condition.
I had a good job until I lost the job due to Tuberculosis. I was placed on eight months injections (Capromizine) and one year eighteen peices of medicine every day.
Even I have started looking for a security job against the doctor's advise that I should finish my medicine before i start working again because I'm still weak.
If you can still help me, my account details is as follows:
Account Name: Adisa Olusegun. Wema bank account number: 0237345387.
No amount is too small, even N500
Thanks

Please my people, help a starving brother. I have been pleading for help since 2 days now. I'm a student who returned to school last week because of the prospects of exams starting on Monday and also because I was opportuned to enter a free ride. my family isn't bouyant enough and my dad has severe high BP that's why I had to find my way so as not to make him to start thinking about where to get money to give me. I haven't eaten a decent food since I got back and am starving.


I am soliciting for help from well meaning people who will be touched enough to hear my plight and have mercy. I am not asking for much, no matter how little, it will go a long way. God bless you all

Lolz.....
