Why Buhari? Why not Buhari? by Kayode Ogundamisi Even if you hate the region Buhari comes from or his religious beliefs, you cant see GEJs incompetence/cluelessness & not pick competent GMB. It is not about North and South it is about saving our country. It is about restoring hope by first electing a leader you can be sure stands for something. A leader who will see the insecurity of any Nigerian outside his region as the insecurity of ALL Nigerians. A leader who would see environmental injustice in Niger Delta as environmental injustice to ALL of Nigeria . Jonathan has had almost 20 years of executive experience as Deputy Governor; Governor; Vice President ; Acting President ans now President; those of us who they now tag anti GEJ protested against the Yaradua cabal to respect Jonathans mandate becouse it was the right thing to do. But Jonathan has betrayed the trust of Nigerians. He has divided Nigerians more than any other Nigerian leader, he either pretends to be naive by allowing murderous terrorists massacre Nigerian. President Jonathan views corruption as petty crime, sees the mass murder of over 6K Nigerians as Nothing new. With Buhari we can be sure of a principled leader who would be brave enough to be frank with Nigerians at all times. Buhari is not in a perfect party; hes not surrounded by perfect people but no leader in the world is. What makes the difference is for a leader to make the right call in the interest of his people at least 80% of the time. 2015 is not do or die to those of us who back Buhari. We will place our case before the Nigerian people and it is for them to make the right call. With Buhari it is not just about fighting curruption it is about restoring the right of Nigerians to enjoying those basic needs. Nigeria will outlive GMB, GEJ and even those of us who support either men. It is the future of our children that is at stake not ours. Kayode Ogundamisi on twitter follow @ogundamisi
