(NIGERIA) Osun State Governor Rauf Aregbesola, has told Nigerians that the country needs Muhammadu Buhari, at this critical time when the country has been driven to a precipice, the same way he toppled civil rule at the nick of time in 1983 as military leader when the National Party of Nigeria(NPN) brought the country to her knees.
Aregbesola urged Nigerians to recollect that the economy, security and social welfare of the citizens had been completely destroyed after the defunct NPN’s rule from 1979 to 1983 when the military took over and gave Buhari the platform to restore the hope of Nigerians. He alleged that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has done worst damage to the country.
He stated that there is significant difference in the Buhari of 2014 who is a civilian and the Buhari of 1983 who was a soldier.
Aregbesola said the first step towards salvaging Nigeria from the claws of death is to vote out PDP just as he demanded for explanations why there was so much poverty and misery in the country despite the fortunes it had been blessed with.
The governor was quoted to have said this when labour leaders in the state met with him to submit a report of the efforts by workers in the state to development fresh means of economic sustenance for the state and increasing the state internally generated revenue of the state.
Aregbesola, in a release signed by his Director, Bureau of Communication and Strategy, Semiu Okanlawon reeled out series of social disorders caused by the PDP government, said, “In 1983 it was Buhari that God sent to rescue the situation of Nigerians where the conservative elements had brought Nigeria to a rot. Buhari has come again to lead us out of the quagmire and sweep away all three anti-democratic and anti-development elements that have brought Nigeria to this deplorable state.
“The PDP and their wicked allies have been known over the decades for misery. If you have them around you for whatever reason, you would realise that they represent nothing other than misery. They represent the best of wickedness, misery and misfortune. Only the misguided would claim to belong to the PDP in Nigeria.”He said.
Aregbesola said that Goodluck Jonathan and PDP cannot be excused from the various crises bedevilling the country today adding that a country that sold crude oil above $100 for more than three years must be asked what it has done with the huge resources that accrued to it.
According to him, the responsibility for the economic tragedy that we are witnessing in Nigeria today rests permanently and absolutely on the PDP and its government at the federal level. There is no way that party and its government can be excused. “As a first step to salvage our nation, we must vote out PDP,” he said
