President Buhari, Osinbajo, APC Never Promised To Make $1 = N1 - Bashir Ahmaad / Buhari Never Promised APC To Make Naira Equal To Dollar – APC / I’ll Make Naira Equal In Value To Dollar, Says Buhari (2) (3) (4)
Buhari Never Promised To Make One Naira Equal To A Dollar by egift(m): 4:07am On Apr 03, 2015 |
The short answer is No. All through the PDP's campaign of hate, we saw many blatant lies being paraded against Gen. Buhari. Twisting of very simple issues and blackmails here and there. In order not be dragged into false expectations that is not there, I will like this issue revisited. 1. Below is the falsehood deliberately ignited by Vanguard newspaper. For everyone who listened to the speech, Buhari never made such claim. The exact quote from Buhari on the fall in value of the Naira is clearly in bold. Owerri – The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday said he would ensure that the Naira was equal to the dollar in value, if voted into office. 2. It is important to state the the "Abacha is not Corrupt" and "spreading Sharia all over Nigeria" also started like this - A Journalist misrepresenting issues to gain audience or for gratification. 3. While I have the opinion that misconceptions is not limited to one political party, it is important we still present the truth irrespective of the number of time a lie is repeated. 4. Anyone you see who continue asking what President Buhari will make Naira to a dollar, know the person is just mischievous, ignorant or deliberately continuing the Hate Campaign of PDP that cost Jonathan the presidency.

sir, what records are u setting straight. May 29th is about 56days away and you are already defending Buhari. what does this statement mean : "I will ensure that the naira is equal to the dollar in value"? Tomorrow you will also come and tell us that he didn't say that he will stabilize the price of oil. In as much as we need to support and encourage our leaders, time has come for us to hold them accountable to their campaign promises. So don't come here and try to twist the obvious. After four years, we shall appraise his performance.....hopefully by then the exchange rate will be N1- $1 God bless Nigeria God bless our president-elect God bless his economic team. 27 Likes 3 Shares |

abuchilag: Provide us any evidence of actual quote from Buhari that One Naira will be equal to a dollar. Below is what Buhari said: “It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar; this does not speak well for the nation’s economy,’’ So how does a comment on the sad state of Naira dropping against dollar, equal a vow to make them equal? Tell us and stop repeating the headlines and comments of a paid journalist. Note: It is not impossible. In Economics, it is called Re-denomination. Ghana did it. But the fact is, Buhari did not make the claim the the journalist attributed to him. Am glad even NTA and AIT are back to reality after months of misinformation. 12 Likes |

abuchilag: Even this is not true. He said he'll stabilize the oil market not the oil price. People even went as far as saying he would stabilize global oil prices. He even said what he said about stabilizing the oil market with regards to Nigeria and the unscrupulous practices that has plagued the market for so long. I saw the interview live, imagine my surprise coming online and seeing people writing rubbish. I just saw it as people having serious comprehension problems or people just being mischievous or both 8 Likes 1 Share |

Rose2014: From that same source, let me paste the full article here for every one to read Owerri – The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday said [s]he would ensure that the Naira was equal to the dollar in value[/s], if voted into office. (where in this Article did Buhari mention this? What useless Journalism is this?) Please slowly and articulately read the article AND TELL ME WHERE BUHARI SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED HE WOULD MAKE A NAIRA TO ONE DOLLAR! I believe you have basic education to understand what i am saying. Instead you should be denouncing Junk Journalism and useless reportage based on hate and calumny, look at you here still jumping on that stale old jonathan's slander propaganda. Remove that hate from your heart, and lets all support Buhari. Is there any need to still cry over spilt milk? Would you want to destroy what nigerians have built together, or dont you have kids and family to think about? Stop Your Hate campaign now and stop spreading misinformation 8 Likes 1 Share |

Ama80: @Bold: The implication of his statement was that the slide is wrong, meaning he will make efforts to see the Naira appreciate in value. But to now run to town an tell everyone that "Buhari promised to make the exchange rate 1 Naira = $1, is grossly mischievous to say the least. In case you don't know, the plan is that in 4yrs, Okupe and his PDP crew will be here to tell use although Naira has appreciated, that Buhari to deliver on his promise to make the Dollar and Naira equal in exchange rate. When he never made such promise in the first place. 1 Like |
