In an interview with CNN's Amanpour, President Buhari talked about
what he wants the US to do for Nigeria as it relates to the fight
against Boko Haram
As
regards speculation that Boko Haram wants to trade some of their members in prison for the kidnapped Chibok girls, President Buhari
said
"We have to be very careful about the credibility of various Boko Haram leadership coming up and claiming that they can deliver. We have to be very careful indeed and we are taking our time because we want to bring them safe back to their parents and their school"he said
Asked further if he was
against negotiating with Boko Haram, he said
"I cannot be against it because as I told you our main objective as a government is to rescue those girls back to their schools and rehabilitate them back to normal sight. If we are convinced that the leadership that presented itself can deliver those girls safe and should, we will be prepared to negotiate what they want"he said
Asked if he will crack
down on corrupt leaders even if they were from his party, Buhari said
"I just have to. There isn't going to be any party member or personality that can escape justice"he said
Asked if he was
dissapointed President Obama who is due to visit Africa soon isn't
coming to Nigeria, President Buhari said
"I wouldn't say I was disappointed but how I wish he will change is mind and go to Nigeria"
Asked
if he asked President Obama o come to Nigeria when they met, he said
"Well I asked him and I will send a formal invitation"he said
Asked
what he thinks of former Chadian dictator who is being tried in Senegal
instead of the International Criminal Court, President Buhari said
"Justice is Justice whether it is done in Africa or else in the world. The important thing is let justice be done. Whatever evidence the prosecutors have in Senegal I think they should proceed to make it available to the world and prosecute him according to international law on Human rights".
"I support any process that is based on Justice"he said

Nice one. Even GEJ too must face judgement
Sai Baba! You too much. Haters gonna pounce on this post

Okay presido noni....... Jor oh
Yes, fighting corruption is pivotal in Nigerian politics/system.
There is nothing wrong with soliciting for assistance from other countries as we need one another to survive.

Ok... Very intelligent man..
dont know why i so much have confidence on Buhari to perform
Well spoken but i hope u will keep to ur words wen d times comes.
Well said Baba!...Lumiwaves.
There's trouble in paradise. E no go easy ooo
And there it is though Linda left a few points out and didn't use some good words used by PMB but overall,this is an ok summary of what was said.
In general,I score the president 9/10 for confidence and prompt delivery.I actually felt Amanpour was a little flustered which came as a shock to me but I guess we all have who we are in awe of.
Great interview!
Sai Baba
Negotiating with terrorist,nt good @ all.....I hope dis romance Witt d Americans z nt leading us to sodomy....
Well done my Able President, you did marvelously well. Haters go and die. Linda take note!
Nicely said
Very good respond from Sai Baba, but don't invite Obama to our country we don't want him in Nigeria thank u.
Hmmmmm. God help him. Who will prosecute these people? All the agencies Police, EFCC, the Judiciary etc are ALL corrupt
Tinubu is in trouble.
For once we have a smart and ariculate president.
Well, ain't him start enough? Anti pmb. Pls begin to criticize him already, sai baba
AAAHHHHH linda, our president is really talking tough on tackling corruption Oooo... We pray for success.
I hope he doesn't step on toes of the people that helped him during election
Your focus is highly questionable Madame Linda.You didn't think to headline with something more beneficial like security,chibok girls or how good the interview was.You had to choose something that you suppose will cause rancor.You know sweetheart,If Nigeria breaks,we won't be able to comment on your blog o.no traffic on your blog means adverts begin to dwindle.no matter how much you have,if the inflow stops,one day one day,the account balance go shake o my sister.
I keep warning you,leave politics to the politicians and just release news as it is without prejudice.
Anyway,you'll also face lake Tahoe right?
My fellow libers,keep following Linda and lets keep hating on one another.like most rich people,they will abandon us when they are through ruining Nigeria and go sightseeing abroad.None of them went to obudu ranch o.
Almost ALL of them left for one country or the other after the inauguration while we suffer through the mess created by them(fuel scarcity,crazy market prices etc.).
Linda,continue!
We don't want Obama in Nigeria quite Frankly, we want nothing to do with a gay monger like Obama, he's a disappointment in my candid opinion!
Na u biko
Na u biko
I think it was a fair one only if he will truth to his words.
Oue president is pumped up and motivated. Change is coming.
SO WHAT HAPPENS TO THE COUP PLOTTERS OF 1983 AGAINST SHEHU SHAGARI'S GOVERMENT? I GUESS ICC WILL HAVE TO REVISIT IT.... GOD HAVE MERCY ON NIGERIA.....THE REAL MESS HAVE BEGAN
One man riot.
Easy said than done.....
That's my aboki. Love u sir
Buhari is full of propaganda. This same man said fight against boko haram is fight against the north.
Buhari also said, how can a governor's son be arrested when Lamido son then was arrested by EFCC.
I wonder when some people say this man is incorruptable
Masha Allah
Very interesting and Smart president we have.
Intelligence answers.
PMB.. Ur days are numbered
I don't know what to say again. Oya libers over to u.
Sai BABAAAAAA!!!!!
Buhari talks too much,action pls
PMB is a beef by even having a thought to negotiate with BH. He is d greatest fool I v ever seen. Clueless old ape.
Its not dat easy dealin wit sacred cows in a country like ours wit numerous of them but I'm confident Buhari can and wit the help of God.
So many 'stalwarts' includin Tinubu, Atiku and d likes canot b exonerated of wrong doin nd so its a huge question starin Buhari in d face nd a lot Nigerians are hopin de wud be included amng the scape goats'.#yung Nigerian
This is an intelligent president here.. compare to Oga Jona ! he never answers questions correctly ..
I hate it that d president of d largest black nation on earth keeps referencing US and G7 like we are their overseas territory.
Hmmm I like the way he responded to the last question. Quite intelligently.
Amazing!. The same reason that GEJ was called "clueless" for even attempting or mentioning that he was willing to negotiate with the terrorists, Boko Haram. Now Buhari is suggesting that he is willing to negotiate with them also. Pls what is the CHANGE here.
there is fire on d mountain.

U r so right! Linda is biased like he'll! I think she wants Naija to b backward so jobless youths can keep commenting on her blog. Change WILL come n we will all be too busy to be hanging here all day. U hear, Linda?
If you promise to lock tinubu and amaechi up,we Nigerians are with you whomever you need in PDP Will be submited,otherwise is just a mere witchhunt
That is not corruption...
He is an ape?
Lets see ur fatherz picture,pls.
Party members, waha dey, bola tinubu, no hinding place for gold fish.
Jah Jehovah, Holy!!!!!!!!!!
Chai! By their words, you shall know them...Haters! Could you please give a reference to your comments...cos i haven't come across such in any news.
So do yours.
Even the G7 and US still render helps to themselves, so..we should seek help from Niger or Cameroon abi??? To whom head is given, brain is expected.
He must have said these things to u alone, in the confines of a room with no doors or windows.
We dey wait
And Amechi too
at least we have an able Leader who knows how to tackle question maturely from every angle, unlike my learned former president who doesn't hv any clue on how to answer question thrown at him.
Bitch are you even Nigerian??? What d fuck is your business here??? And if you are Nigerian, are you so ugly that you can't use your pic????
