Former head of State and a chieftain of the All Peoples Congress, APC, General Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd) has promised that Nigeria and Nigerians will witness a restoration of true and proper democracy and an end to the menace of insecurity in the government of his party, the APC.
Speaking during an interview on the Liberty Radio monitored in Kaduna, Buhari said “the APC was fighting to give Nigerians what they deserve, security and proper management.”
“All we are fighting for is to have proper democracy. What I mean is that whatever people say, whether they reflect briefly on it or not, Nigerians are now well aware of their right and what they expect from government.
“In APC, we have reduced it to two – security and management. We have to secure this country and manage it properly. I think people have suffered enough; they are now prepared to listen and I believe they are listening and are cooperating. We have been convinced, since 1991 when the Soviet Union collapsed without a shot being fired, that multi party democratic system is superior.
“But there is an important barrier. Elections must be free and fair. We have been to court three times in 2003, 2007 and 2011 not because we were convinced that we were going to win. We went because we want to make sure that this multi-party democracy takes firm grip on Nigerians. If we can come and go, the system will be strong enough to guarantee security for this country and guarantee prosperity for this country. This is our objective,” he said.
“There is also this problem of insecurity in the land, both physical and material, which the APC is about to wipe out, God willing. Like I have said, we have to properly secure and manage this country,” he stressed.
