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.



Nigeria: Forward Ever, Backward Never!



FORWARD EVER, BACKWARD NEVER!

Those whining about hardship in Nigeria and expecting to magically land in the Promised Land flowing with milk and honey remind me of the ignorant and ungrateful pessimistic Jews lamenting after crossing the Red Sea and started cursing Prophet Moses and Aaron that they preferred to return to their days in Egypt.


Those who want to return to the days of looting by wheeler dealers in the corridors of power in Abuja are the enemies of our progress. And I say this without apologies and without regrets.
They are those who don't want to make sacrifices for the nation building of a New Nigeria. I know Who is Who in Nigerian political leadership since working for the Alhaji Bamanga Tukur's presidential campaign in 1990.

To Support President Muhammadu Buhari is a Patriotic Duty



To support and vote for President Muhammadu Buhari for second term is not a personal choice, but a patriotic duty to save Nigeria from being relooted by political criminals and their ass lickers who have no conscience and no shame. This is a war between light and darkness; between good and evil.

Obasanjo's Endorsement Of Atiku Will Not Distract President Buhari



State House Press Release

Obasanjo's Endorsement of Atiku Will Not Distract President Buhari

The Presidency has received the news of former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s predictable U-turn and somersault on the endorsement of the PDP candidate, Atiku Abubakar, at a meeting Thursday, and to say that we are the least surprised by the well-rehearsed theatre.

They will lose together. Listening to the prepared statement of the former President after the meeting showed the usual ego trip and “I know it all” character of Chief Obasanjo.

In the first place, we dare to say that a pompous statement from the former President advising Nigerians on a vote against President Buhari is the best recommendation that can come at this time.
