Buhari remains best man to lead Nigeria – Umohinyang
By
Convener of Re-elect Buhari Movement (RBM), Emmanuel Umohinyang, says incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari remains the best man to lead the country to attain its potentials.
Umohinyang stated this in an interview with BusinessDay yesterday in Ikeja, noting that the country had made significant progress since the advent of the current administration in all sectors, stressing that the re-election of Buhari for a second term in office was necessary for the consolidation of such gains.
Umohinyang urged Nigerians to be patient with the Buhari administration, stressing that several people-centred policies and projects initiated by the administration were yielding fruits.
“We have seen 16 years of PDP what they did and the difference with the Buhari’s administration, we can not say we have arrived. But we are seeing that signs that if things continue the way they are now, we would not go back to where we were before.
‘The second term would help him do more and consolidate on these achievements in the country and I want to believe he has the support of Nigerians,” he said.
Speaking further, the RBM convener said it was impossible for the Buhari administration to correct all the anomalies perpetrated by the PDP for 16 years, adding that opposition to the second term bid of the President was from individuals who had been denied access to the nation’s treasury.
“The President cannot solve all the problems but you saw the rot the President met, and what the country was at that time. The President cannot solve all the problems in four years. Nigerians need to be patient; there is a season for planting; there is a season for harvesting, and you can see things are getting better.
“Those oppose to the second term bid of Buhari is because they had been denied access to loot the nation’s treasury, he has stopped them from stealing; you saw them defecting from one party to another recently,” he said.
He praised the anti-graft war of the current administration, which according to him had instituted a new culture and way of life into public office holders in the country. He said that his group was non-partisan but set up solely for the re-election bid of the President.
“You can see that stealing is now in the past, the government has entrenched that culture now. Our group is not partisan, we are mainly for the re-election bid of the President; we are not for any other candidate and we would not want to be involved with any other candidate,” he said.
