Buhari Won the Presidential Elections in 2003, 2007 and 2011- Fomer US Ambassador Campbell


Channels TV:
In your book, you refer to Muhammadu Buhari as the candidate who won the most votes in each of the last three elections in Nigeria, and was defeated by his opponents rigging efforts, how did you arrive at that?

John Campbell:
You arrived at that conclusion by talking with people who were intimately connected with the entire process. Dt included individuals but also NGOs, NGOs that were foreign based and that were Nigeria based. And the rigging took place not so much at the actual polling places, but rather at the places where all the polling results were brought together.

Channels TV:
Was this information from the INEC perhaps?

John Campbell:
Well INEC, I was the US ambassador at the time, and working officially with INEC. All INEC gave me was their talking points.
