The presidential candidate of the All progressives Congress, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on Saturday told Nigerians not to make the mistake of voting the Peoples Democratic Party in the forth coming general elections.
He stated this in Lafia, the Nasarawa state capital, during the North-Central zonal grand finale rally of the APC, adding that the 16 years of PDP rule in the country was a waste.
Buhari said, “Our Nigerian Airways, shipping line, railways, refineries, all collapsed under 16 years of PDP rule in the country. Nigeria goes to import fuel for consumption abroad, trucks are killing our people on our roads on daily basis.”
The presidential candidate also called on the thousands of supporters at the event to vote APC right from the presidential to the state House of Assembly level for a change to good life in the country.
The retired general said if he was elected as president of the country, he would not cheat people of the country, as refineries, roads, agriculture, roads, and other infrastructure would be revamped for the improvement of lives of the citizenry.

He tasked all the supporters of the party in the country with ensuring that they obtained their Permanent Voter Cards before the elections.
Meanwhile, Governor of Yobe State, Ibrahim Gaidam, on Saturday said Buhari was excused from having a political campaign in his state due to the spate of insecurity in the area.
Speaking at a rally of the APC in Damaturu, Gaidam said contrary to reports that he did not see eye-to-eye with the presidential candidate of his party, the insecurity of the Maiduguri-Damaturu highway was the reason Buhari was excused.
The governor said he was amused by the fabrication of the opposition aimed at getting cheap political point.
Gaidam said the APC presidential candidate remained the candidate with proven integrity.
He described Buhari as a straight forward person that Nigerians would benefit under his leadership. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Never again! I'm never voting PDP again, for any reason! Nigeria is in shambles because if them. They've had their time, let's try something else, I'm sure the difference will be clear. I'm not APC nor their supporter, I'm just a concerned Nigerian that have grown sense. We absolutely need change in Nigeria, it's urgent. Together we can make it happen. Drop the insults and the animosity, let's unite and sweep evil away from Nigeria, so we can grow. Enough is enough
ReplyDeleteVote Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for continuity and consolidation.
DeleteDon't be deceived by these crooks that calls for change, the Arab spring is all about change but where has it led them to? 2/3 of middle east is in turmoil because of that slogan change, u are an Igbo girl and as such should be wise rather than being foolish.
Americans clamoured for change, is US better under Obama? China have over ran Us as the world largest economy.
Beware and be warned, don't betray ur kins men.
I know it's a senseless Gejite that will be the first to pour out insults, followed by the other imbeciles supporting GEJ. Anonymous 11:22am calling Emilia Foolish for advocating for change, you are just a cheap thug, jobless fool. It is ur family and generation that is foolish, for bringing in tribe into politics. I'm Igbo too and I'm voting Buhari, kill yourself. Anumpama
DeleteEnough of this old deceitful illiterate fool call buhari whose sole aim is to destroy our young democracy.never will again will some aggrieved politicians gang up to distabilise our democracy with propaganda and well packaged lies. even the the fool they tried to psckaged as their so called apc flag bearer is not packagable he disgraced himself everywhere by displaying his level of illiteracy.may God help nigeria.the devil we know is better than the devil we dont know.continuety we want.
ReplyDeleteThe worst is to the gathering of thieves called APC. Unfortunately, people like Emilia have been deceived to thinking that anything good is in APC. They are a group of wicked people desperately fighting with lies to destroy Nigeria and take her back to dark ages.
ReplyDeleteSome people say they're not party supporters yet they advocate not voting for a particular party. That's flawed thinking. Is it about party or the individual? By the way, note that a lot of the power brokers in APC were actually the same PDP members that Buhari and others stated have failed the country in their 16yrs rule. So PDP failed for 16yrs but I see the same people that failed in PDP as APC power faces. Is it to continue the failure or because they no longer have top attention in their original party? I don't see the much talked about change in APC. I prefer and advocate transformation and improvement. Honestly, a lot of the PDP bad eggs that caused failure have moved to APC, so PDP is better now to move Nigeria forward.
ReplyDeleteTruthful lie, Musiliu obanikoro who was appointed a commissioner is even having a case in court for rigging Ekiti state election and yet the president nominated him, how about Stella Odhua? She escorted the president to Jerusalem to pray for Nigeria (prayer indeed). How about the millions of dollars transported in a private jet for ammunition purchase? PDP is worse now than ever and u people still can see anything about it and again. up till now, all the bad eggs has not been prosecuted meaning they are not bad according to jonathan. continue sleeping bro and let ur children/grand children suffer ur ignorance.
DeleteGEJ till 2019
ReplyDeleteWhat we need is change and APC is promising us that. If APC doesn't perform we switch, no sentiment..
ReplyDeleteWe are tired of stagnation. We want Nigeria of our dreams, where UK, US and others countries of the world will be rushing our visas.
We will get there. Our vote is our power to make that change. The future belongs to us the youth.
Please lets vote wisely.
Gbam! As simple as it sounds. No need for insults.
DeleteLets our votes reflect the Nigeria of our future. Lets vote wisely.
ReplyDeleteStop saying rubish. We will vote GEJ cos he is better than the old sick mand who neither knows the name of his party nor the name of his running mate.

DeleteChai. ..see old man who want be our president, why not fashola?
ReplyDeleteFor those of you insulting me and calling me foolish for supporting Buhari, your insults cannot stop the good change that Nigeria is about to experience. Believe it or continue to remain in denial, things are changing already, cos I haven't seen an election as powerful as this before,, something that made our president to work effectively for 6 weeks. What he couldn't do in 6 yrs. my PVC is exclusively for Buhari and I'm a proud Igbo, Christian and Nigerian. Bite me!
ReplyDeleteenough of this old buraris threat.you think Nigeria is like zimbabwe.where old and synil leaders rule.tjis is democracy.and never again wil an x dictator rule me.you ruled my parent but u wil never rule me and my family.
ReplyDeletethose who want change by force are the brothers of BH who want to also change Nigeria to Islamic state by force, and when they could not they cannot spear there wife life,, the slide there throats so the same of them who want change by force in these country for there satanic reasons they should be prepare to face the big choice either to joint a united Nigeria or the should chose the same way as BH to perish
ReplyDeleteHe pardoned Alamesiegha, the man who was convicted abroad and had to escape dressed as an ugly woman. He pardoned and embraced Buruji Kashamu; a wanted drug baron and made him a party chairman. He pardoned Al mustapha; the hench man of Late Sani Abacha to use him in order to achieve some selfish political gains. He accepted and embraced Ali Modu Sheriff; a well known boko haram sponsor and gave him the PDP ticket to contest for senate. He failed to prosecute Stella Oduah, the Aviation Minister for the massive sleaze of her ministry's treasury to buy bullet-proof cars. He failed to prosecute Aba Moro; the Interior Minister who suprintended over the death of many graduates in search of immigration jobs and collected a thousand naira from each candidate. He failed to prosecute Diezani Madueke; the Petroleum Minister who has not been able to account for the missing billions of naira that developed wings under her care and was indicted abroad for brazen corruption. He failed to prosecute the man who stole billions of pension funds meant for those who have deligently served their father-land for 35 years. Aminu Oguche, the man who was extradited, a self-professed master-mind of the Nyanya bomb blast in which so many lives and properties were destroyed; was set free and to this day, not a single word has been heard from the presidency. He appointed Obanikoro, a known and unrepentant election rigger as a Minister in his cabinet. He appointed Femi Fani Kayode, a man with a money-laundering case on his neck, as his campaign co-ordinator. When Nigeria had a president, Gani Adams was in hiding, Uwazurike was in detention awaiting trial for treason, Asari Dokubo was in detention awaiting trial for treason, Tompolo was in hiding.Now vagabonds are in power the result is what we are witnessing today. Nigerians, these are the kind of people Jonathan loves.
