2015 POLL: BUHARI's SANITY QUESTION

It is imperative to state, that in the process of embarking on electioneering campaign, serious care must be expended in the use of  language.

The use of derogatory word such as challenging the mental stability of an opponent in a bid to run down such a person before the electorates should be condemned.

Imagine a situation where, Secretary of the  ruling Peoples Democratic Party’s Presidential Campaign Team in the South West, Jide Adeniji, saying  presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), retired  Major General Muhammadu Buhari does not possess the mental capability to rule Nigeria in the 21st century.

He today argued that Buhari did nothing worthwhile, staging a   coup and unseat a democratically elected government of former President Shehu Shagari in 1983.

Adeniji said, "I respect General Buhari; he is an elderly man, but Buhari does not have the mental capability to rule Nigeria.
"Some people ruled Nigeria and did not build anything, they did not do anything to uplift the standard of education.

"No way, President (Goodluck) Jonathan won’t hand over power to an S75 holder. His certificate is in doubt. Is that the kind of leader Nigeria needs now? No."
