A youth group that was very active during the 2015 campaign has apologized for helping him win the 2015 elections.
On Wednesday, Feyi Fawehinmi, one of the leaders of the pro-Buhari/APC group, with Twitter handle @Doubleeph wrote an epistle apologizing to Nigerians. He wrote, ''It is possible that I convinced a couple of people to vote for Buhari and the APC. I owe them an apology. The instincts of these people is to run with their expired ideas directly in the face of all the contrary evidence i.e. the 21st century. In fact, they are not interested in evidence, they are so convinced of their own foolishness. A bunch of undercover communists and unreconstructed socialists.
“I have nothing in common with such people and yet I somehow donated money to them and canvassed people to vote for them. I will freely say that this is one of the biggest lessons I have learnt in my life so far.
“If I convinced even 10 people to vote for Buhari, then I owe them an apology. For not properly interrogating the people who offered themselves as the solution to Nigeria’s problems. Not because it would have made a difference but because it was the right thing to do. Nigeria was always the point.”
Oluseun Onigbinde, the Lead Partner of Nigeria’s budget and public policy analysis platform, Budgit, also apologized to Nigerians via Facebook. He wrote, ''Maybe I have not been bold to say it here. To put my entire reputation online for anybody when I am not guaranteed access to tell you my mind, I won’t do it again. I apologize too.
''We will continue to help this government in the way we can because Nigeria First. We just need to be honest that we exaggerated the expectations of Buhari but it was two poor choices we had. We have to admit how to fix that.”
