2015 poll: Buhari not fit to govern Nigeria, group insists

A Lagos based group of young Nigerians under the aegis of Patriotic Vanguard, today declared that presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), retired Major General Muhammadu Buhari, is the most incompetent person to rule Nigeria.

Addressing a rally at the Lagos Ibadan Express Way, to sensitise Nigerians on what it termed the unsuitability of the APC presidential flag bearer based on his record of inhuman, insensitive, unaccountable and draconian leadership in public office,  Coordinator of the group, Sina Animashaun expressed, "Concern that   records and misdeeds of the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) in public office are incongruous and inimical to the quest of genuine democracy in Nigeria.

"The rally was held against the backdrop of emerging facts regarding General Buhari's undemocratic and uncivil tendencies as manifested in his deceitful admission on Oath and refusal to provide evidence of academic qualification to the independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as well as failure to avail Nigerians on the true position of his health and source of the enormous resources currently being deployed into his campaign.

"It has therefore become important to sensitise the general public and particularly voters on the need to be vigilant and ensure that Nigeria's democratic process is not put on reverse gear on the pretence that General Buhari is the change Nigerians need at this crucial time.

"More than 30 years after triple cold-blooded murder of Benard Ogedengbe (29), Lawal Ojuolape (30) and Batholomew Owoh (26) by the military government headed by General Muhammadu Buhari, the APC presidential candidate has refused to publicly acknowledge the fatal error as manifested in the execution and injustice meted out to the victims of retroactive anti-drug trafficking law.

"The simple truth is that General Buhari's idea of change is to torpedo the socio-economic and political order in Nigeria through manipulation of politics to further entrench religious extremism and impunity."
