PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENCY: I DO NOT HAVE INORDINATE AMBITION, says Turaki


Frontline PDP presidential Aspirant and former Minister of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, SAN, has said that he had no inordinate ambition to be the president of the country.

Rather, he said, he was propelled by the desire to give qualitative leadership to salvage the country from its current socio-economic, political and leadership quagmire that the clueless and inept APC government had put the country.

Turaki made this known on Friday, in his campaign office in Abuja, when he granted audience to the National Executive Committee of the Nigerian Political Science Association (a group of intellectuals) who came on a fact-finding visit to know what agenda the aspirant had for improving the life of the average Nigerian.

The association was led by its president, Professor Aloysius Michael Okolie of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

Turaki who urged Nigerians to take a more active interest in the governance of the country, pointed out that the variables for determining political leadership had changed as people now look beyond the character of the political parties to the quality of the candidates being presented for elective offices.

He stressed that a presidential material at this juncture of the nation's history "must be somebody who has integrity, credibility, well educated, knowledgeable, experienced and be able to build strong bridges of unity across the country. Somebody who will treat Nigerians fairly, equitably and decently, and above all, have the fear of God."

The aspirant assured the association that he has the vision and the necessary political will to lead the country, noting that he would bring trust, sense of responsibility and rule of law into governance.

He listed his priority ares as the tackling of the challenges of insecurity, addressing the critical question of unity including restructuring from different facets to promote equity and fairness, revitalizing the economy, pursuing scientifically-driven and value-added agriculture, infrastructural development and educational development driven by technology and geared toward employment generation.

"We would bring deliberate policy of reforms; genuine change as different from the propaganda stuff which the APC has been dishing out to Nigerians," he said.

Turaki decried the failure of the APC government to implement the report of the 2014 National Political Reform Conference which would have largely addressed the problems of restructuring, equity and fairness that had triggered the current increased agitations for ethnic self-determination.

He similarly expressed disappointment at the non-implementation of the report of the Presidential Committee on Dialogue and Peaceful Resolution of the Security Challenges in the North East of which he was the chairman.

The committee's report, he maintained, would have greatly addressed the issue of Boko Haram insurgency and other security challenges such as the armed banditry and the farmers-herdsmen perennial clashes.

The president of the association, Professor Okolie who decried the level of deficit in governance in the country, however, commended Turaki for his capacity and valuable ideas as well as for being sufficiently educated.

The power tussle within the presidency cabal is real.Daura working for Saraki APC dont know how to tell lies.Otherwise Saraki should also be controlling the service chiefs, EFCC, IGP
A fact is that the APC planned an undemocratic coup that failed woefully hence somebody must be made the scape goat.
Let this ugly incident be thoroughly & independently investigated & let whosoever is implicated be thoroughly punished accordingly.

You may also wonder why a man who is answering to Buhari would give investigation report first to Sarak without consulting with his Principal. I had known that since that Magu case, Daura although trusted by Buhari, is working in-orderly.

Wow wow wow

Bump for the doubter

McCoy662:
Let's not be sentimental in our arguments here.

People don't turn atheist by choice but they are compelled due to lack of verifiable evidence of the existence of God or of what God is reputed to be.

like I have asked before, if anyone wants to tell me that God created everything but was not created, then this is a problem and raises much questions. if the greatest can exist without being created, why do we think that any other thing cannot come to being in that same way

I guess you missed this thread below, it's one of the best on this board, well thought out

Your explanation here validated the scam in Religion..if the sin of Adam and Eve created all these sin you mentioned here...

why can't the death of jesus returned man back to it original state of creation? why do man still need all these long processes again. his death should automatically made us saint who had no sin and qualify us to make heaven instantaneous! simple. not all the merry-go-round

Abjay97:
Though i dont support Buhari or APC, i think he's tried a bit in our railways most especially. The Abuja Metro.. but the most painful part is that the railway system we are trying to revive is outdated and achaic in world standard. We need bullet speed trains, where someone can be living in Port Harcourt and working in Enugu

Dont be misinformed, This time of rail are still being used in advanced countries, be aware also that the bullet train require electricity to run and the cost will be huge also considering the fact that Nigeria is just recovering economically.

Investors need to know that Rail Transport is profitable first before they can invest their money. so this face of development will prove that their money worth spendin

He said: “We shall be willing to even engage many of them by making provision for their salaries so that they can assist government to re-orientate the people for good.

In a sane society, the monetary incentives will be rejected by the Religious leaders and they will still preach against immorality and corruption and do their work for God
But THIS IS NIGERIA!

You are so right, all we need is the enabling not like one Governor that wanted to License Pastoring to people before they can preach

This not a news if he is not fighting with Dino. The governor will not like him

SARS ke?

When we tell them #EndSars them keep quiet, he done do now

sarrki:
North wants Pmb our at all cost

They should remember know one will allow another 8years in the north

All Buhari needs to do is get involved actively in the campaign all over the north with propaganda that those who decamp were not allowed to loot hence they run away. Anyway, most of then rode on Buhari's back, not that they have anything to offer. Its time to test their popularity.

dalaman:
When Americans act such movies they always let their viewers know that it's FICTION.

Nollywood will even tell you sometimes that the nonsense they are acting is based in a true story. Inside you'll see all sort of nonsense and empty superstitions like money rituals etc .

Such a fictional story doesn't happen in in Hollywood. It is either the future or history, like Avatar, Van Helsing, etc

Anyway, what do you find out about Santeria?

Before that Tsunami Disaster, I went to the beach to meet a meat seller, but offer me a pork, that was when I mete a punishment on him, them he stated beef with me

dalaman:
Nolly wood is the most backward and most useless movie industry in the world. All they do is propagate and encourage useless and backward superstitions.

I once watched an American Hollywood horror movie. casting three cult guys who abducted a girl and used her for an occultic ritual. The girl turns to be zombie that goes on a killing spree. Till the end of the movie, she was never caught or subdue.

The last few scenes from the movie show the three guys had become famous and rich music band.

So think beyond Africa or Nigeria being in possession of Dark power, this is not the first time am asking you to make research on Santeria

HardMirror:
it is a fact people are being killed, but i am sure the rituals never produce a dime. All we ever see are dead bodies and parts, never will you see anything that proves that it yields money. Use your head bro

That was because those who succeeded in act will not come out say they are ritualist.
If Europe is not a better place why would Africans endanger their lives crossing the sea into europe?
If America is not a better place, why would people keep chasing American dream?
If Money ritual doesnt work why would people keep trying it centuries after centuries?

The real Ritual Money is not done for any Tom and Harry, like a political connection, it's by connection.

God is not in the category of human, who are move with unstable emotion. Whatever he does or still doing is with authority with no one to question him. It's only human being who has the sense of accountability that felt remorse after a decision is taken because in one way or the other he knew he has to answer for his deeds.

But God is not subject or answerable to anyone so his actions are final. What causes remorse is a sense of guilt, but God has no superior who can set a standard for him, hence has no guilt to any offence, nor has he broken any rule.

Any another case remorse might be a wrong choice of word in this context. I can still say this question is invalid

Allahu akbar

Optionally:
I need to know a maths txtbook i cab buy for an Ss3 student that one can easily understand and has a lot of examples in it and also covers all ss3 maths topics.
Note: The person isn't really good @ maths so we need a really txtbook that explains well with enough examples.

Comprehensive Mathematics is Good for Revision against Exam Prep. But Get General Mathematics if not for exam prep.

Very Good, When are we removing Foul-Your-Sheet from Ekiti state

The reason why Sen Ben Bruse failed as NTA DG and in Business is because of crazy ideas.
Old people cant send sms by themselves, and can be cheated if they ask they someone else

Votes can be manipulated by the Telecom Coy

This is the worse idea of 2018, even worst than grazing bill

LeBlanc36:
Burn the witchcraft brooms to ashes!!!

APC have being hunting the witches who brought the witch brooms, so the witch are living

Instead of them burning Dino's house, they destroy public property. This yoot should know that those classrooms were built with public money

Thats a good Idea, that wagazine will sell a lot because atheists are increasing daily, each of them will subscribe for about 10 copies monthly and shared with friends and family they wanted to free from mental slavery.

HungerBAD:
Interesting.

All I can say is that 2019 will be very interesting. Infact, it will be too interesting.

What if Saraki takes the East and South(minus Edo),and then he,Buhari and Atiku share the whole of the North?

No matter who emerges the flagbearer of any political party, it eventually will be WEST that will decide who becomes the next President.

Saraki Finally Islamized Wike
