NIGERIA: Buhari Says Jonathan Cannot Win In Free And Fair Election


A former Head of State and the national leader of Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.), has dismissed the call by South South leaders that it is Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 or no one else.

“I don’t take the decision of South-south leaders seriously. The South-South people said it is Jonathan or nothing; I know they are members of the Peoples Democratic Party, let them vote for him,” Buhari said.

He added that “In a free and fair election, let us see if they can give him the ticket against other geo-political zones. Let them give him the primary ticket first. Let them vote for him when 2015 comes and let us see if he would win.”

Buhari said this in Kaduna when the party’s governorship candidate for the October 20 election in Ondo State, Soji Ehinlanwo received him.

While lamenting the delay in prosecution of those indicted in the pension probe, subsidy and other scams, Buhari maintained that “this can only happen in Nigeria”

He said “Why are those officials not prosecuted to retrieve the stolen money? It is only in Nigeria that fraud of this magnitude takes place and this incompetent government is doing nothing about it.”
