I’m Not In This Race For Power, Money – Buhari by Shedluck: 9:06pm On Mar 26, 2015 |
The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), has said he is not in the race for power or money. He says he is in the race in response to the yearnings of Nigerians for an improvement on their lives and the betterment of Nigeria. Buhari said this in Abuja on Thursday in what was said to be his last media briefing before the crucial election. He said Saturday’s election presents Nigerians a great opportunity to end impunity and incompetence in governance. The APC candidate noted that 16 years under the Peoples Democratic Party remained a story of despair, despondency, disillusionment and pervasive fear, caused by unprecedented insecurity. He said the basic functions of the government such as the security, welfare and happiness of the citizens appeared only on the pages of newspaper. According to him, it is morally wrong for any government that has woefully failed in these basic responsibilities to demand or expect another mandate from the disillusioned citizens of Nigeria. Buhari said, “I am not contesting this election because I want power and money. I am doing so because Nigerians believe I have what it takes to achieve the much-needed change. When the people express confidence in your ability and integrity to lead them, you have a responsibility to answer the clarion call to national service. “The presidential election this Saturday, March 28, 2015, presents a great opportunity for Nigerians to come out en-masse and vote to remove an incompetent government from office. The beauty of democracy is that it gives power to the people to change the government peacefully. “The PDP administration has exhausted all its goodwill and lost all the argument on performance and competence and is, as a result, seeking to retain power at all costs, regardless of performance, which is a shameless reflection of desperation and greed for power. “A government that abandons its citizens to their fates has no reason to remain in office a day longer than necessary.” Source:- http://www.punchng.com/news/im-not-in-this-race-for-power-money-buhari/ Source:- http://guruswapaz.com/forum2_theme_111123351.xhtml?tema=405 1 Like |

the last time you were pictured with a javelin while motivating your supporters to kill over 800 people after you lost the 2011 election, hope you're also going to improve the lives of the over 800 people you incited your supporters to kill Hope the 11 corps Members butchered by your supporters in 2011 are part of the Nigeria you Want to better Imagine a power thirsty man who has been chasing power by any means possible denying the obvious. Well, tell that to hungry and gullible APC supporters they will believe you . |

[size=20pt]Really?!! an avowed SHARIA evangelist will become religiously neutral - NIGERIAN Politicians can LIE!!! [/size] TRUTH NO 1: - "I will continue to show openly and inside me the total commitment to the Sharia movement that is sweeping all over Nigeria" TRUTH NO 2: - "God willing, we will not stop the agitation for the total implementation of the Sharia in the country"" TRUTH NO 3: - "It is a legal responsibility which God has given us, within the context of one Nigeria, to continue to uphold the practice of Sharia wholeheartedly , and to educate non-Muslims that they have nothing to fear"" TRUTH NO 4: - "What remains for Muslims in Nigeria is for them to redouble their efforts, educate Muslims on the need to promote the full implementation of Sharia law,"" TRUTH NO 5: - "next presidential elections vote only for someone who would defend your faith"" How will General Muhammadu Buhari convince anyone but these APC bloodsuckers that he does not intend to wipe non-muslims the way Boko-Haram, ISIS and Al-queda are doing. Truly if GMB fails to win.. we will all be soaked in DOG and Baboons blood. |
