His platform was built around his image as a staunch anti-corruption fighter and his incorruptible and honest reputation. However, Buhari stated in an interview that he would not probe past corrupt leaders and that he would give officials who stole in the past amnesty, insofar as they repent. In January 2015, the insurgent group "The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta" (MEND) endorsed Buhari in the Presidential race, saying he is the best candidate to lead the country. Muhammadu Buhari's campaign was briefly advised by former Obama campaign manager, David Axelrod,[87] and his AKPD consultancy. In February 2015, former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo quit the ruling PDP party and threw his support behind the Buhari/Osinbajo ticket. On 31 March, incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan called Buhari to offer his concession and congratulations for his election as president. Buhari was sworn in on 29 May 2015 in a ceremony attended by at least 23 Heads of State and Government.

Its only statutory to wish you happy birthday BUT: Can someone mention 3 things buhari has done both as a military head of state and democratic president? Birthday while 4 million job and counting have been lost.. Birthday while standard of living have dropped and cost of living terribly high.. Birthday when folks cant meet up with parental obligations due to loss of jobs or under-employment.. Birthday when starting salaries of graduate was 80k but now 30/35k.. Birthday when fulani herdsmen have field days harvesting peoples brains.. Birthday when bokoharam are killing citizens and our soldiers commiting suicide.. Birthday when tonnes of moneys are brazenly stolen and case shoved aside.. Birthday when states owe salaries and citizens have even forgotten their birthday dates.. Of what essence is his birthday? 48 Likes 1 Share |
