The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday said President Goodluck Jonathan had destroyed the integrity of the Nigerian Army.
Tinubu, who addressed supporters of the APC in Katsina State during the party’s presidential campaign, was reacting to the claim by the Nigerian Army that the original certificates of the APC presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), were not in its custody.
Tinubu said the controversy suggesting that Buhari might not have sat for the West African School Certificate Examination as he claimed, having failed to tender the results, was an unnecessary distraction and a proof that the Peoples Democratic Party lacked the capacity to woo voters.
The APC leader described the President Jonathan administration as a failure, adding that the certificate controversy would not stop Nigerians from voting him (President) out of power.
He said, “We are confronted with terrorist challenges of the violent Boko Haram sect. Instead of Jonathan to stop Boko Haram, he is busy dancing around and the Peoples Democratic Party are busy talking about qualification of Buhari. They have destroyed the Army. They are destroying the integrity of the Army.
“Are you questioning the time that Buhari was recruited into the Nigerian Army? Are you saying the colonial Army did not inspect his certificates before they sent him for training as a cadet officer? Are you saying he did not graduate as a cadet? Are you saying he did not become a captain? Or are you saying he did not become a colonel? Are you saying he did not take any exam in the Army? What is the Nigerian Army becoming? Is it a Jonathan Army or election Army?”
Tinubu, whose speech was interrupted with shouts of ‘Sai Buhari’ from the crowd, urged the northern youths to vote out Jonathan in the February elections.
He said President Jonathan did not deserve a second term because he was incompetent to tackle the nation’s problems.
Tinubu said, “They are not talking about corruption. They are not talking about the money; how Nigeria’s oil money is being stolen. They are busy stealing the money pretending to be fighting corruption and always giving us excuses everyday and every time. We should vote him out. Change Jonathan, vote Buhari.
“May God keep Nigeria from the level of destruction that the Jonathan administration has plunged the nation into. The PDP has worsened poverty in the country and they don’t remember any good thing to tell Nigerians. They are liars. This is why we are asking you to vote Buhari – qualification or no qualification, certificate or no certificate, married or single, young or old.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
