APC debunks myth of Buhari's one term as President (if elected)

Press statement from the APC
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked the myth being peddled by the PDP that Gen. Buhari will spend only one term in office if elected President, saying it is the creation of the PDP which is seeking to play a section of the country against another.
"The APC will not abridge the right of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari to spend the constitutionally-guaranteed two terms as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria if elected in the March 28th poll,'' the party said in a statement issued in Lagos on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.

''No conditionality whatsoever was attached to Gen. Buhari's candidacy. He won the party primaries fair and square in a globally-acclaimed transparent manner, and he was neither a compromise nor a consensus candidate, hence there is no need for him to make a deal with anyone.

''We are therefore telling Nigerians to disregard the tales by the moonlight which some PDP elements are yarning, in their desperation to muddle the waters ahead of the forthcoming elections and create disaffection between a section of the country and another,'' it said.

APC said it had ignored the myth all long because it was being peddled by fringe elements in the PDP, but decided to put the record straight once and for all after those who were thought to be saner elements in the ruling party started parroting the same incredulous lies.

''This myth that Buhari will spend one term, after which power will return to the South-west, is along the same line as the outlandish claim that our Vice Presidential Candidate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has sworn to an oath to resign in favour of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu once elected.

''The question to ask is: When will the PDP stop this campaign of calumny and character assassination against our candidates and leaders? When will they stop this one-day, one-lie nonsense?

''The truth is that Gen. Buhari's candidacy has brought out the worst in the PDP leadership and supporters, including Mr. President and his wife. Unfortunately for them, the more they campaign against our candidate, the more popular he becomes. Perhaps the PDP would have stood a better chance of winning the forthcoming polls if its State Governors, in particular, have devoted as much time and energy to running their states as they have devoted to maligning Gen. Buhari,'' the party said.

Nigerians wake-up wherever you are for #change#! Buhari and Osinbajo. Can change this country and Nigeria will be better again. Yes he can do it. Don't let people deceive people party, deceive you they are coming again!!! Shine your eyes well, they re hawks that surround GEJ, Its has been proven that Nigeria are not moving forward for past 6 years now, all what they do is to recycle themselves and continuity of embezzlement of Nigerians money. You can see for yourself, the way they use Obanikoro, to rig Ekiti State. Governorship election, people deceive people PDP party, that is their mentality. They said Buhari will take us back if elected President! Nigerians say it's a good decision to go back when you've lost your way on a 6 years. PDP journey where our destination as a nation is no longer visible. Please, Buhari, take us back to the era where:1. One Dollar was less than one Naira. It is incredible today!2. Everything was on first come first serve basis.3. There was zero tolerance for corruption.4. Oil refineries in PortHarcourt, Warri & Kaduna were built & running at full capacity.5. Anybody with questionable wealth was afraid to display it in public. 6. There was Zero tolerance for indiscipline. Everything was in order7. Nigeria had no debt at all.8. Neglecting your children was a crime9. Littering the public place was a crime10. Twenty oil depots were built and functioning.11 Western world can't interfere into our nation.12. Chad invaded Nigeria, we sent them packing but did not harness their Land13. Our economy was NOT running on generator14. We can sleep with our eyes closed because we were secured.15. Countries like Indonesia and Malaysia need not to set example on how to deal with drug pushers. 16. The Maitaseine Islamic Sect insurgency in the North was crushed on record time. 17. We want those days when Buhari was a military Governor but did not amass illegal wealth. 18. We want those days when Buhari was a Minister of Petroleum but did not hire a private jet for N10 billion. 19. We want those days when Buhari was a Head of State but did not loot the Treasury. 20. We want those days when Buhari was Head of PTF but did not steal the Fund even in the days of Abacha when stealing was the order of the day. Pls, Buhari & Osinbajo, take us BACK! We can't afford another 4yrs of waste in the hands of PDP!!! Take us BACK to the good old days of this our great nation. #ihavedecided to vote for #change#

Exactly! If Buhari performs greatly when he becomes president, I'm sure people won't mind voting him in again. If he fails, we would surely vote him out the same way we are voting Jonathan out now. Power in government belongs to the people.

APC is just issuing one statement after another. Is it that they have nothing better to discuss? Evil APC is out of steam and are just rambling the about the whole place. If their military wing is not bombing and murdering innocent people, Liar Muhammed is cooking up lies and propaganda. Evil APC shame on you.

I said it before that APC is out of any real campaign strategy. Na so so statement them dey issue. Is their nothing else they can talk about? This is just very disappointing.

Anonymous said...

APC like the sound of their own statements. That is why they are just issung empty statements up and down. So by this APC wants to impose an octogenarian on Nigeria by the imaginary second term? God forbid! APC una don finish.

Anonymous said...

APC just fell into PDP trap. By issuing this statement it means that APC has admitted that they see nothing wrong with a man in his 80s (Mugabe style) as Buhari would be in their imaginary second term becing the president of Nigerai! God forbid bad thing! Aso Rock no get vacancy.

Anonymous said...

What kind of change is this APC talking about sef? So while some of us are still pondering this 73 year old ( official age, unofficial age is more likely like 76) man they are saying they don't find it abominable that an man in his 80s could potentially be the president of Nigeria. Anyway no vacancy in Aso Rock in 2015. Haba APC!

Anonymous said...

Bokohari can be the leader of APC in his 80s but not of Nigeria. What stupid statement for APC to make here.

Anonymous said...

I just now dey doubt this APC. How can they be talking about a second term for an already very old man? APC just lost my vote. It is clear their so called change is a ruse.
