The All Progressives Congress (APC) and its flag bearer, Muhammadu Buhari, have finally taken a hold of Nigeria’s federal power after what was for them the longest eight weeks in the nation’s history (March 28 – May 29, 2015).
During the electioneering campaign, the people’s general, who shall forthwith be addressed as President Muhammadu Buhari; his vice president, Yemi Osinbajo; and other top members of the party, made lots of promises to Nigerians, upon which they rode gallantly to power.
Would the APC, Buhari and Osinbajo keep their promises to Nigerians? Or would their administration end up like the quote of Greek author, Aesop, who said: “When all is said and done, more is said than done”?
Just in the spirit of accountability’s sake, TheCable has compiled a list of Buhari’s and APC’s promises to Nigerians, as these will undoubtedly form the stake against which the APC government would be assessed when this new tenure ends in 2019.
