101 REASON WHY GENERAL MUHAMMAD BUHARI IS THE ANSWER 2011
1. Our dear country Nigeria is in dire
need of qualitative and substantive
change from retrogression of the past
twelve years under PDP to a future of
progress, beginning from May 29 2011.
This is what GMB represents and offers.
2. We are tired of broken promises
and broken down infrastructure. The
railways are gone, the shipping lines
have disappeared, roads are dilapidated
and the power situation is still epileptic
after twelve years of wasted Billions of
Dollars. GMB promises 15,000MW of
electricity by 2015 and 50,000 by 2019.
3. We want somebody that will come
and fix our roads and basic
infrastructure. GMB plans to construct
3,000km of Superhighway including
service trunks and build up to 4,800km
of modern railway lines – one third to
be completed by 2015.
4. We are tired of being ruled by the
Party of Do or Die politics and
politicians. GMB plays politics of
persuasion and policy articulation.
5. We want to be free from the ‘nest of
killers’ who can do anything for power.
We need a peaceful polity as envisaged
by GMB
6. We are tired of non-functional
refineries. GMB is set to optimise their
productions once again and initiate new
ones with the private sector. He has
done it before.
7. GMB will put a stop to the
importation of 70% of our petroleum
products when we can produce same.
8. We are tired of shameful and
disgraceful importation of petroleum
products. Prices will come down when
GMB takes over on 29th May.
9. We need solution to our secondary
school education decay where 70%
failures are recorded and the PDP is
audacious enough to seek our votes.
10. We are tired of the celebration of
corruption by the PDP. They organised a
party to welcome Bode George back
from prison where he had been for the
past two years for stealing.
11. We are tired of the PDP president
spending 100 million Naira public funds
daily for only presidential jets ’ fuelling
during campaigns while many Nigerians
are hungry, jobless, homeless and
hopeless.
12. We are tired of the negative image
of a corrupt nation stamped on us by
the PDP government ’s twelve years of
waste.
13. We are tired of a baby president
who is completely clueless about the
solutions to our problems. It is time to
separate the boys from the men. It is
time for GMB
14. We are tired of being ruled by
stooges with godfathers pushing them
like a barrow and telling them what to
do at all times. We want a real self
confident President.
15. We are tired of attempts at
introducing third term through the back
door.
16. We do not want a man who
supported, funded and campaigned for
third term.
17. We are tired of the chop I chop
government of PDP. The public till is for
all members of the Nigerian society and
this is what GMB will ensure.
18. We are tired a president that is
playing politics with University
education. He announced new
Universities to win votes, while the
existing ones are barely effective.
19. We are tired of a government that
cannot secure our lives and property. So
many lives have been lost in Jos, Port
Harcourt, Maiduguri, Bauchi,
Okerenkoko, Ayakoroma, etc
20. We are tired of an illiterate
government without an ideology,
without social and political principles
and without an understanding of
society and governance.
21. We are tired of election riggers
and government of thugs and ritualists.
22. We are tired of a government of
cult men and Ogboni members.
23. We are tired of a president that
says one thing and does exactly the
opposite.
24. We are tired of a president that will
brazenly rig his own party primaries
with impunity and still go and beg for
help from the same people.
25. We are tired of a president that
blackmailed and arm-twisted fellow
convoluted governors to win his party’s
nomination.
26. We are tired of a president who
inaugurated a presidential advisory
committee (PAC) to advice him but later
turns round to snub their patriotic
advice.
27. We are tired of a president whose
only qualification for the presidency is
goodluck.
28. We are tired of an economy in
comatose while the PDP government is
in denial.
29. We are tired of a government that
has borrowed more than $32bn in four
years for no tangible course and is set
to borrow more.
30. We are tired of a government that
spends more than 30% of its 2011
budget to pay foreign debt. A
government that makes foreigners rich
and Nigerians poor.
31. We are tired of a PDP government
that does not care about the welfare
and wellbeing of the Nigerian people
but is only pre-occupied with being in
power for 100 years. WE NEED CHANGE.

personality, temperament and character
to stop the drift in government and

while in the PTF has not been matched
by 12 wasted years of PDP who have
squandered billions of naira building
nothing.

the Pre-PDP government of Shagari, GMB
reduced inflation from 23% to 4% in
twenty months only.
66. In his regime, there was no single
religious crisis unlike what we have
today with PDP.

former Head of state, GMB owns no oil
block, no petrol station unlike the PDP
presidents.

gladiators fear him and love to stop him

74. He is very liberal in his religious
beliefs and that was why he appointed
a Pentecostal and Charismatic Pastor as
his vice.

leader who does not own a house or
Land in Abuja. Amazing!

promote affirmative action for women

months as Head of state dwarf those of
all who came after him especially the
now ending inept and corrupt 12 years

because of her antecedents working

EFCC while some at the helms now will
continue their case in EFCC when they
leave office on May 29th 2011.

a Pentecostal and Charismatic Pastor as
his vice.
75. GMB is the only former Nigerian
leader who does not own a house or
Land in Abuja. Amazing!
76. He is the first Head of state to
promote affirmative action for women
in Nigeria by directing that all state
cabinets must have female
commissioners.
77. His achievements in twenty
months as Head of state dwarf those of
all who came after him especially the
now ending inept and corrupt 12 years
of PDP.
78. He is the most capable, competent
and creative candidate in this years ’
presidential election. He has been
military governor, petroleum minister,
Head of state and chairman Petroleum
Trust Fund (PTF).
79. Many people do not know that it
was while working with PTF that Dora
Akunyili was discovered and it was
because of her antecedents working
with GMB that Obasanjo appointed her
into NAFDAC. See what PDP has done to
her reputation.
80. GMB from the outset has identified
with the poor masses in all his
endeavours. That ’s why he is called the
People’s general. Now he will be called
the ‘People President’.
81. His main opponent identifies with
the rich. His close friends include, Femi
Otedola, Aliko Dagote, Jim Ovia, Jimoh
Ibrahim, the Anyiam Osigwes, James
Ibori, DSP Alamieyeseigha, Peter Odili,
Ebitimi Banigo, Olusegun Obasanjo,
Anthony Anenih, etc who all have one
thing in common.
82. While GMB is being backed by the
masses, others are being sponsored by
the enemies of the masses.
83. No single money bag is bank
rolling his campaign unlike the PDP.
84. GMB is the answer because as
Head of state, he introduced the War
Against Indiscipline (WAI) which gave
birth to discipline, patriotism, the queue
culture and the monthly sanitation
exercise in Nigeria among other things.
85. GMB has never had a case with
EFCC while some at the helms now will
continue their case in EFCC when they
leave office on May 29th 2011.
86. GMB will permanently solve the
problem of violence in the Niger Delta
originated by Lucky and his friends.
Many people do not know the level of
involvement of the PDP government in
the Niger Delta crisis.
87. GMB represents change, hope,
progress and honesty in Nigeria.
88. He is incorruptible.
89. He is honest, credible, hardworking
and patriotic.
90. He loves Nigeria more than
himself. This is evidenced in his dogged
determination to fight for the masses
the third time at the presidency.
91. He is a master strategist and
organiser cum mobilize. He built with
the masses a political movement into
the fastest growing national political
party in the world in less than two
years.
92. He is from a humble background
and worked his way to national
recognition. He is set to do the same to
millions of Nigerian youths who need
Mentoring.
93. GMB represents the last set of the
Murtala legacy and is set to ignite the
sparks of that regime with actions and
actions on all aspects of the polity with
his team.
94. GMB was the only Head of state
that devoted and committed more that
26% of the nation ’s budget to
education.
95. He is not anybody’s stooge. The
third campaigners cannot claim same.
Can they?
96. GMB is well respected and
recognised by the international
community as a committed anti-
corruption crusader.
97. GMB discouraged drug trafficking
when he was Head of state. The menace
increased when he left office but will be
banished again.
98. He is ready and willing to bring
back confidence to Nigeria ’s economy
by tackling headlong the problems of
insecurity and lack of infrastructure.
99. GMB is the answer to our problems
now because he understands them and
knows how to tackle them. The PDP is
completely bereft of any idea on how to
move our nation forward.
100. GMB He is the epitome of sincerity,
honour, and integrity and will keep his
promise to Nigerians, unlike those who
cannot even keep a gentleman ’s
agreement in their party.
101. GMB IS THE ANSWER BECAUSE ONCE
AGAIN NIGERIANS NEED HELP.

WHO IS AFRAID OF BUHARI?
I write this because of millions of Nigerians
who are below 30 and who constitute a
significant chunk of our voting population.
This is the ICT generation that is largely
ignorant about the events of the Buhari era
(1983-85) and so can be misinformed and
misled by needless propaganda. I have sat
with many in the under-30 bracket and
those slightly above who only have faint
recollections of the Buhari era and the level
of ignorance about that era is amazing.
Before being MILITARY Head of State, Buhari
had been Governor of one of the Northern
States (under Obasanjo’s Military
government) as well as Minister for
Petroleum. He later served as Chairman of
PTF under Abacha.
Please consider the following unassailable
facts:
* he birthed and supervised the
establishment of our existing refineries.
* there was no religious crisis while he was
Head of State. It started under his successor
IBB!
* in his time as Head of State he reduced
inflation from 23% to 4%, by fiscal
discipline and a homegrown economic team
(not achieved under any other era, even
military).
* JJ Rawlings of Ghana took over 2yrs
before him, and killed all the corrupt leaders,
while Buhari only sentenced the corrupt
leaders here to prison
* Under his watch as PTF Chairman, what he
did in road construction in that short period
hasn’t been matched by 12yrs of the PDP
* hospitals and universities around the
country never witnessed as much benefits
as they got from the PTF from any
government after or before his time.
* despite serving in senior capacity in the
oil sector, first as Minister for Petroleum and
then Petroleum Trust Fund, Buhari has no
petrol station, much less a rig, refinery or an
oil block like so many of our leaders.
* He could have retired into nauseating
opulence like an IBB or Danjuma or even
OBJ but didn’t
* Instead of hobnobbing with the high and
mighty, he has cast his lot with the ordinary
man most of who follow him out of hope
and belief in his values. People who know
him have said of him… “All I need from
Buhari is his word, I can take it to the bank”.
* he is the only politician in the North today
who fills rallies without renting a crowd.
The Kaduna rally of 2nd March is eloquent
proof!
* He refused to collect an allowance while
serving as Chairman of the PTF because he
said since he was already drawing a
pension from government, his conscience
would not allow him to draw another salary
from the purse of the same government
* He is the only former head of state that
does not own property or land in Abuja.
* Every attempt to rubbish him through
probes in time past eneded up vindicating
him! The man who was asked by OBJ to
take over the running of PTF before it was
scrapped with the aim of probing and
indicting Buhari, was the one who ended up
being prosecuted for misappropriating
$100m of PTF funds! Buhari again, was
vindicated
* He has OPENLY challenged those who
accuse him of religious fundamentalism to
come out and show proof. No one has till
today, taken up the challenge. His personal
driver of many years is a Christian from
Plateau State!
* Nigeria was only invited to OIC in
observer status. IBB took us into full
membership. This is a quote from a 2001
write-up by Prof Omoruyi, one of
Babangida’s hatchet men. “The period of
General Babangida (1985-1993)
represented the beginning of unmitigated
Islamization of Nigeria. General Babangida
was one of the loyal followers of General
Murtala. This was why General Babangida
took the fateful decision in 1986 to face the
Nigerian Christians in particular and
Nigerians in general with the plan of
Muslims. He without the approval of the
governing organs of the Federal Military
Government organized a mission led by a
non-member of the Government, the Sultan
of Sokoto to formally admit Nigeria into the
Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC).
When the Chief of General Staff, Commodore
Ebitu Ukiwe complained that he knew
nothing about it and definitely said that he
could not remember the matter coming to
the Armed Forces Ruling Council (AFRC), he
was shown his way out.
* His government initiated the War Against
Indiscipline that has made environmental
cleanliness, queuing up, not urinating by the
roadside etc features of our national life
even till today
Does it then surprise you why corrupt
people would be spreading such heinous
rumours about Buhari? He is a threat to
them and they know what he is capable of
doing to corruption and corrupt people
when he comes into office! So shine your
eyes and make the right decision.
If honesty and probity are the things you
want for Nigeria, now is the time to choose
right. When you cast your vote for the
BUHARI/BAKARE ticket, you would have cast
one vote for two honest men.
Now that you know better, will you please
educate another person BY FORWARDING
THIS TO AS MANY AS YOU CAN
