Insurgency and Insecurity

I have had the rare privilege of serving my country in the military in various capacities and rose to become a Major General and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. I defended the territorial integrity of our nation.

I pledge to:

As a father, I feel the pain of the victims of insurgency, kidnapping and violence whether they are the widows and orphans of military, paramilitary, civilians and parents or the Chibok girls. My government shall act decisively on any actionable intelligence to #BringBackOurGirls.
 

Niger Delta

I pledge to:

Restore the integrity of the Niger Delta by implementing relevant sections of the Ledum Technical Committee on human capital development, resource management and distribution, governance and rule of law, reclamation and environmental and sustainable development.
Commit myself and my administration to the phased implementation of the United Nations Environment Program’s(UNEP) recommendations on Ogoniland.
Unveil a marshal plan for the regenerative development of the Niger Delta.
 

Diversity

Diversity refers to the inherent complexities of the variations in the social fabric of a people. Elements of poorly managed diversities include absence of cohesion, low capacity or political will to address resulting tensions, weak institutions of the state, in-equalities in every facet, impunity, breakdown of mutual trust, rising incidences of violence and total breakdown of law and order. To quickly reverse this observable trend in our society:

I pledge to:

Continually acknowledge and consciously equality and equity in all government businesses and activities.
Implement the National Gender Policy including 35% of appointive positions for women.
Work with National Assembly to pass a National Disability Bill, which I shall immediately assent, into Law.

Management of the Economy for prosperity

Every Nigerian deserves to benefit from the running of our collective resources. We promise not to leave any Nigerian behind in our determination to create, expand and ensure equitable and effective allocation of economic opportunities. No matter the amount of funds we generate, unless there is an efficient and effective utilization, it will only create few billionaires.  Unless we fight corruption, the economy will only benefit the greedy in our society.

I pledge to:

Work with the legislature to strengthen constitutional provisions to make the meetings of the National Economic Council more periodic and predictable and its decisions more binding.
Present annual report on the state of the economy to the National Assembly and the Nigerian People.
The Preparation of Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and annual Budget will be guided by job creation projections.
Negotiate rule-based oil revenue management process, and adopt a rule based excess crude account management process, which will entail a fixed percentage (e.g. 10% or 20%) of oil revenue each year, and also set clear rules about where the proceeds will be domiciled, when the savings can be used, by whom, and what the savings can be used for.
Work with the National Assembly to adopt a rule based, realistic and predictable oil benchmark as a basis for a more transparent management of federation account revenue and excess crude account.

Undertake to institute an annual statutory tripartite body contribute towards formulation and implementation of broad macro-economic policies.
Reposition Ministry of Employment, Labour and Productivity and all relevant agencies mandated to manage labour dispute and grievance handling process to ensure pre-emptive strategies to halt the current frequent incessant strikes phenomenon.
 

Power

The power sector has become a monstrous demonstration of corruption. Despite investment of more than X there is nothing to show but few fat cats.

I pledge to:

War against corruption in the power sector
Tackle the issue of gas availability for the proposed power plants
Emphasis alternative sources of power such as small, medium and large hydro plants (Mambilla has capacity for 4,700 megawatts), wind, coal and solar. Efforts will be geared towards smaller and potable power supply.
Start an accelerated training of human resources for the power sector.
Work with PenCom to consider giving soft loans to power sector operators.
 

Youth and ICT Development

The youth are the salt of the nation. More than 60% of our population is categorized as being of youth age. The future of the nation depends on the brains of the youth and not on what is buried under the ground.

I pledge to:

Declare support for the appointment of young people with requisite qualification into key political offices to begin the incubation and mentoring for a successor political generation.
Unveil a policy that all federal contractors must employ at least 50% young people.
Work with the private sector to establish innovation fund for young people.

Immediately establish linkages with friendly names to champion exchange programmes for the acquisition of IT related skills.
Extend the local content policies to cover software and hardware developments in the youth-driven markets. Put in place a quality assurance mechanism to ensure that standards are met and adhered to and make it a policy for companies to procure a % of their ICT needs from the local market.
Hold a summit of all ICT service providers, OEMs, etc both local and foreign that are doing business in Nigeria to device concrete skills transfer and capacity building models in a sustainable manner.

I want to see these changes in my lifetime.

I want a government that leads from a doctrine of integrity, accountability and transparency.
Government that works from a philosophy and action to stampede corruption.
A government that works from a philosophy and actions to secure all citizens, and take responsibility for their actions.
Government that encourage and ensure patriotism becomes the mantra and slogan of our core society.
A government that unites Nigerians, not divide Nigerians.
A government that is ready to improve our middle class by ensuring the gap between the rich and the poor reduces. Why? Because the wealth of a nation lies in the growth of its middle class.

We can do it, we can get it right this time. The road to a prosperous Nigeria lies in getting the fundamentals right. With the right foundation comes a better structure that will stand the test of time.

I believe in people with proven characters, integrity and courage. That's why I believe their stories. I believe they will do their best to actualize their stories. Let's all support them for a prosperous Nigeria.

A man if his word like "I will never contest for the office of president after 2011 general elections."

My interest is on his stance on FOI Act. 'Encourage proactive disclosure of information by government institutions in the spirit of the Freedom of Information Act'.

So first action here is please SHOW US YOUR WASC

Validated:

Don't be daft for christ sake.

Code213:


Don't be daft for christ sake.

I am wondering who is daft here. Your gene is full of causes and you refer to Christ? There is a simple parable that you can guess the size of a poo by the fart. Charity begins at home. You cannot be telling us bla bla bla. if you cannot prove the authenticity of your foundation.

Buhari in line with FOI Act, SHOW US YOUR CERTIFICATE

And yet people prefer GEJ whose covenant is not to jail our uncles and see a female president in his life time.

That guy enhhhhh

Na so.

second term is the time most politicians loot because they have nuffin to lose. Anybody being deceived that Jonathan will do anything if granted a second term is just being gullible. Jonathan will waste the four years. I'm certain of that. Vote for change vote come feBUHARI

This doesn't sound like the words of an illiterate to me, joor !

Amazing pledge.
If this can be achieved i see a better Nigeria.
A Nigeria where impunity is reduced and people can lead a decent life.
