ormer Head of State and Presidential Aspirant of All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari has said that, if Nigerians allow the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to rule the country for another four years after 2015, it (PDP) would send the country down the drain.
ýHe said Nigerians were tired of incompetent leadership of the PDP, urging the electorate to be at alert in all ramification to ensure that there is free, fair and credible elections that will usher in credible leaders at all levels of governance.
The former Head of State said this in Kaduna yesterday while delivering remarks on behalf of himself and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, who was also present at a stakeholders meeting of the northern APC.
According to Buhari, 2015 is another year of extreme concern to Nigerians, which leaders of the opposition APC must not allow their members to be disenfranchised prior to and during the elections.
While stressing that APC was in better position to wrestle power from the ruling party, General Buhari stressed the need for vigilance among party members against all manipulation to rig the poll in favour of the ruling party.
In his words, “I contested the Presidential election three times in this country and failed and ended up in Supreme Court and lost the case.
“The first time, the Judges that, agreed that there was no election were from the South and they are all Christians.
But, the second time, the Judges that declared that PDP has won despite the irregularities are Fulani from Adamawa and Taraba and a Nupe man. That was when I understood that, it is not about religion and ethnicity, but about Naira and Dollars,” he said. Read more
