Buari: i will end insurgency in Nigeria if elected

The presidential aspiranton the platform of All Progressive Congress (APC), former Head of the State, Maj.-Gen. MuhammaduBuhari (rtd.), has vowed to end insurgency and otherforms of anxiety in the country, if elected President in the 2015 general elections.
The promise is coming because of increasing insurgency by the Boko Haram terrorists in the North-East and particularly the Friday’s attack on Kano Central Mosque.
APCpresidential aspirant also refused
lobbying delegates with money during his last visit to Imo State during his countrywide tour to meet the party’s delegates.
Dr. Chidia Maduekwe, the Head (Media, Publicity and ICT) in Buhari Support Organisation, noted this in his weekly brief on “GMB meet the party delegates nationwide tour.”

“At no time did GMB, all through this meet the delegates tour, share money or lobby any delegate with money. As we all know, a leopard can never change its spot. Friends and sympathisers may have privately encouraged their colleagues to attend the delegates’ meeting, certainly not GMB directing or approving any monetary exchange, as being falsely reported by some online media,” he stated.
Buhari had visited Abia, Bayelsa, Imo, Delta, Cross River and Rivers states in his countrywide tour to meet delegates, where Governor Rotimi Amaechi defined him as a dedicated and focused leader whose slogan was honesty.
“The summary of all the response and the welcoming remarks by GMB at various state capitals can be summarised. He made it clear that this country must first be secured and efficiently and effectively managed if our nation is to bounce back to normalcy for our people to prosper. Leadership integrity must be the focused watchword if we must salvage Nigeria once again,” Maduekwe said.
“We recall that we fought a civil war without borrowing a kobo. But now, despite budgeting well over 25 per cent of the national annual budget to defence, we are borrowing $1bn to prosecute insurgency. Yet, all we keep hearing is the low morale of our fighting forces as they melt before the rampaging ill-trained insurgents.
“A situation where about 20 LGAs of this country are under an alien flag can no longer be tolerated. APCis ready to turn the tide to bring Nigeria back into the fold of proud and respectable community of African nations. Our watch-word is: Securing our nation, prospering our people.”

He continued, “One is worried to read about Nigerian soldiers giving interview to foreign media on how under-equipped they are as they face the insurgency. Effort by the National Assembly to conduct hearing on such sad development is hushed down. Same as the NASS hearing on the subsidy scam which till this date has remained a mystery to our general public.”
Buhari has also told Nigerians to make sure their votes count during the 2015 general elections.
Buhari spoke at a reception organised for him at the APC secretariat in Enugu State on Saturday evening, where he observed that soldiers involved in the campaign against terrorism and insurgency had complained of inadequate weapons, despite the huge security budget, as well as lack of effective leadership.
It was reported earlier the leading APC presidential candidate, donated N1 million to the delegates of the party from Imo State to get their votes during its December 10 national
