In 2011, Buhari Vowed To Serve For Only One Term If Elected by Shehuyinka: 8:10pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
By declaring his intention to contest the 2019 presidential election, President Muhammadu Buhari went against his words. This declaration is no doubt in perfect compliance with his rights under the law, even though it may not accord with the wishes of many Nigerians. But it is not only the desire of Nigerians that conflicts with Buhari’s second term aspiration. Seven years ago, Buhari himself appeared not to have fancied the idea. In an exclusive interview with Sunday Trust’s Theophilus Abbah in February, 2011, the then presidential aspirant was asked about an earlier statement where he promised to serve for only a term if elected in the April elections. “I’m not getting younger. If I succeed and do one term, I will be 73 years old,” was his short response. The interviewer further asked what his priorities would be in that single term in office, and he said “security and power”. “There are two issues and I have said it in one sentence. Security and power. This country has to be secured and managed. People in Nigeria must not go about fearing that they would be abducted. You must not be afraid to the point that you can’t drive from Kaduna to Kano any time of the day. If you are in Lagos, you should have jobs to the point that you can afford to have three shifts in a day. “That is eight hours each. But people are now very scared wherever they are. People have built houses worth over a billion naira, but they are afraid to live in them. What is the use? So, security is number one.

Only if you know that power intoxicate. When obasanjo was in power, he made an attempt for 3rd hope we haven't forgotten. Before GEJ was in power too, he also promised one term. So let's be guided that once you are in power, your integrity must be tested. You can hardly stand by your words. But it is still not their own total intention to stay more than what they have promised to stay. They all have people that are benefiting from there stay in power, they are called psychopaths. These keep pushing them to continue staying in power just for their own selfish interest. 33 Likes 3 Shares |

Working towards equating the Zimbabwean dollar ![]() Now think about this, once the hate speech cum slavery bill gets enacted, most of us still caught up in this shithole would be kept silent and zombified, only those outside the country would be speaking out and its mostly gonna be here on nairaland....

Unfortunately he lost that election under the defunct CPC. He won in 2015 under the platform of APC. Different year, different party, different manifesto. Hold him accountable for what he said within this period under APC. 7 Likes |
