The Buhari Vanguard, a pro Buhari group,
held a rally in Lagos, Saturday, urging
Nigerians to support Muhammadu Buhari for
President.
The road show, which began near the Nigeria
Labour Congress, NLC, Secretariat at Yaba,
moved across the city and ended at the
state secretariat of the All Progressives
Congress, APC, at Ikeja.
“This is a road show and a rally and the theme
is ‘Nigeria need Muhammadu Buhari,’ said
Jasper Azuatalam, the Chairman of
Buhari Vanguard.
“We have seen it since 1999. After 1999,
when General Buhari saw what was happening
in Nigeria, he entered into politics. In 1999
you can remember General Buhari never said a
thing about politics, but because those that
came to do it did not do it he decided to enter
politics.
“We know he is the only one that can end
corruption in Nigeria. The only one that can
promise and keep it. He has no oil well. This is
the right time. Now that APC has come. It’s a
party with political structure. And with APC,
General Buhari will coast to Buhari,”
Mr. Azuatalam added.
The road show moved across Lagos in a convoy
of vehicles beckoning on people to embrace
change in the next elections; and chanting
‘No more bad luck o.’ ‘No more there is God o,
‘No more we go die if we dey find job o, ‘No
more darkness o, No more Boko Haram o.’
Adewale Balogun, an APC chieftain, said that
“this is the time that we need Buhari the
most”.
“If you go to the streets of Lagos, you will
see the development that has been done by
APC. Go to Ogun State, go to Osun State, any
state that is being ruled by APC is a state
that can always be reckoned with in terms of
development.
Do we have development for this country?
Then let us bring Buhari back,” Mr. Balogun
said.
“If Buhari can come back this time around, I
can assure you that all that all the youths will
be busy. It is because the youths are
not busy, that’s why you are having Boko
Haram, that’s why you are having militants
and area boys.”
Another speaker at the rally said that there
will be “zero corruption” if Mr. Buhari
becomes president.
“He has done it before. You can see the rate
of corruption in the system now. And the
corruption causes Boko Haram, the
corruption causes unemployment,
indiscipline,” he said.
“This is a fellow that when he was Head of
State there was nothing like corruption. He’s
the only one that can give us zero
corruption. Don’t let us deceive ourselves. It
is so glaring now, if Buhari comes in now,
corruption will be zero, development will be
there.”
The organizers insisted that the rally was not
a campaign ahead of the 2015 presidential
poll.
“TAN (Transformation Ambassadors of
Nigeria) is going around telling people to vote
for Goodluck Jonathan because Goodluck
Jonathan is the presidential candidate of
PDP,” said Mr. Azuatalam.
“In APC, we have no presidential candidate.
We have respected gentlemen like Atiku
Abubakar, Rabiu Kwankwaso, Rotimi
Amaechi, General Muhammadu Buhari, Bola
Tinubu and others. We have not chosen our
presidential candidate.
“What we are doing is our inter party things.
We are not doing a campaign, this is a
political activity. INEC did not ban
political activities, they banned campaign and
that is not what we are doing.
