Mrexcell:
Does he even have a choice in the first place?

BreconHills:
Bros no one hands over power to anyone anywhere in the world. Power is earned or seized. It is for the South to strategise if it wants this thing called power. I call it this thing because it has never favoured those who rely on son of the soil paradigms. All over the world successful politics is based on strategy, alliances and indispensability. Nigeria is not different. You dont get power by believing you are entitled to it and even when you dont get it, you must rapidly re- strategise to reduce the downside.

Let's avoid simplistic overused mantras in 2020. It's a new decade.

President Muhammadu Buhari has reiterated his intention not to contest the 2023 presidential elections but determined to help strengthen the electoral process both in Nigeria and across Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).


News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that several ECOWAS members will be going to the polls in 2020.
Buhari made his feelings known in a letter to Nigerians issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, in Abuja on Wednesday to mark the commencement of 2020.

He said his decision to help strengthen the electoral process, particularly in Nigeria, was informed by the frustrations the nation’s electoral system had triggered.

“Elections are the cornerstone of our democracy.

I salute the commitment of the millions who voted in peace last February and of those leaders who contested for office vigorously but fairly, submitting to the authority of the electorate, the Independent National Electoral Commission and judicial process.

“I understand very well the frustrations our system has in the past triggered. I will be standing down in 2023 and will not be available in any future elections.

“But I am determined to help strengthen the electoral process both in Nigeria and across the region, where several ECOWAS members go to the polls this year,’’ he said.

On security, the president said: “As Commander-in-Chief, my primary concern is the security of the nation and the safety of our citizens.

“When I assumed office in May 2015 my first task was to rally our neighbours so that we could confront Boko Haram on a coordinated regional basis. Chaos is not a neighbour any of us hope for.

“We have been fighting on several fronts: violent extremists, cultists and organised criminal networks. It has not been easy.

“But as we are winning the war, we also look to the challenge of winning the peace, the reconstruction of lives, communities and markets.’’

According to the president, the North East Development Commission will work with local and international stakeholders to help create a new beginning for the region.

He also expressed government’s readiness to continue to work with State Governors, neighbouring countries and the international partners to tackle the root causes of violent extremism and the networks that help finance and organise terror.

“Our security forces will receive the best training and modern weaponry, and in turn will be held to the highest standards of professionalism and respect for human rights.

“We will use all the human and emerging technological resources available to tackle kidnapping, banditry and armed robbery.

“The new Ministry of Police Affairs increased recruitment of officers and the security reforms being introduced will build on what we are already delivering.

“We will work tirelessly at home and with our allies in support of our policies to protect the security of life and property,’’ he added.

Buhari maintained that his administration’s actions would be governed by the rule of law as well as engagement with well-meaning leaders and citizens to promote dialogue, partnership and understanding.

“We need a democratic government that can guarantee peace and security to realise the full potential of our ingenious, entrepreneurial and hard-working people.

“Our policies are designed to promote genuine, balanced growth that delivers jobs and rewards industry.

“Our new Economic Advisory Council brings together respected and independent thinkers to advise me on a strategy that champions inclusive and balanced growth and above all fight poverty and safeguard national economic interests.

“As we have sat down to celebrate with friends and family over this holiday season, for the first time in a generation our food plates have not all been filled with imports of products we know can easily be produced here at home,’’ he said.


He also noted that the nation’s revolution in agriculture had become a reality in all corners of the country.

The president expressed the hope that the new agreements with Morocco, Russia and others would help access on attractive terms the inputs the country needed to accelerate the transformation in farming.

“A good example of commitment to this inclusive growth is the signing of the African Continental Free Trade Area and the creation of the National Action Committee to oversee its implementation and ensure the necessary safeguards are in place to allow us to fully capitalise on regional and continental markets.

“The joint land border security exercise currently taking place is meant to safeguard Nigeria’s economy and security. No one can doubt that we have been good neighbours and good citizens.

“We have been the helpers and shock-absorbers of the sub-region but we cannot allow our well-planned economic regeneration to be sabotaged.

“As soon as we are satisfied that the safeguards are adequate, normal cross-border movements will be resumed,’’ he added.

Even if South strategise and even form alliance with Middle Belt, what makes you think there will be free and fair election? You think Islamist in this regime will organize fair elections that will allow infidels to win? Buhari himself has NEVER won any election but he's the president!
If you're counting on free and fair elections then I pity you. Free and fair election does not exist in dictionaries of Islamist fundamentalist.
Nigerians especially southerners are in for a surprise.

saaron:
No one gives a crap about what this tyrrant says. The real bone of contention is what the islamist regime have planned for in the next general election. A lot of people will be shocked at what will happen in 2023.
Nigerians think Islamist fundamentalist like Buhari will hand over to a Southern Christian or any Southerner, but I tell you with all certainty that will never happen. Northern fundamentalist have NO PLAN of handing over power to the South!
Northern islamist fundamentalist live by Sharia and those living by sharia are charged to resist govt of infidels. If their koran sharia laws charged them to resist infidels, why will they hand over power to infidels?
It's for this reason buhari is facing out christians infidels from top govt agencies and replaced with muslims. Concentration of power in the hand of muslims is one of the tenets of sharia. Where do you thing islamist like buhari got the balls to remove a Christian CJN for a muslim CJN illegally? From sharia law. If someone like Buhari who live by strict tenets of Sharia, what makes you think he will hand over power to infidels? Handing over reigns of power to infidels in 2023 will amount to disobedience of the koran.
Muslims are charged to RESIST the rule of Infidels by all means. You thing boko haram was an accident? Boko haram was specifically created to Resist infidel govts - OBJ, GEJ.
If northerns could sink so low to create terrorist groups like boko haram that claimed thousands of lives just to take back power from infidels, what make you think these same northerners will hand over to Southern Nigeria in 2023?
Buhari will never hand over power to infidels.

Relax and see what will happen in the geographical deception called One-Nigeria.
NOTE; North regards Southern Christians and Muslims as Infidels.

BTW, free and fair elections is dead! So anyone counting on buhari's islamist regime to conduct free and fair elections is just decieving his/her self.

NwaAmaikpe:





Baba please don't shut it down.

You'd be amazed by how many of us support you as long as you can pay us our 30k stipend and give us free campaign t-shirts.

We don't mind if you ruin this country, just continue ruling us.
We'd prefer a Buhari 3rd term to a Tinubu's single term.

Amalekki:
Atiku supporters are clowns

Awoo88:
I will be standing down in 2023 and will not be available in any future elections.
This guy is divorce from reality. Does he have any choice? Was he planing to suspend the constitution?

He's actually put paid to the failed "Dubai Strategy" of Atiku and his PDP ilks that came of.with that line of baseless stories that had no factual evidence. Same was sold to Brown-Envelope journalists who gave it some traction all in a bid to heat up the polity. Thing in they found a president with an impeccable record needed a lie to dent his image.

PMB is saying it loud and clear that he will not only hand over power, he will help in strengthening elections, more like jail riggers and loosers who want to subvert democratic institutions

Stanzar7:
For once just agree u need sense. Some people r willing to help

Awoo88:
It was APC members who went to court to seek constitution amendment to allow buhari rule forever. It was APC house of rep member who floated the ideal first. Beside thus is not the first time buhari will be saying something and doing the exact opposite. Anyways it is immaterial whether he want third team or not. He will not get it. And he can not stand down as his presidency will seize to exist after may 29 2023.
