Buhari said this during the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential rally in Lokoja, Kogi state capital, on Wednesday.
He said a vote for the PDP would return the country to “the ugly past”, accusing the opposition party of squandering the nation’s wealth.
“All we’re trying to do is to remind you to think, ‘Where were we in 2015 when we came in (and) where are we now?’ ‘What have we been able to achieve with the resources available to us?’” he asked
“To remind you, I have challenged anybody in Nigeria to check in Europe, America and Asia that Nigeria was producing 2.1 million barrels a day at the cost of US$100. So, Nigeria was earning 2,100,000 times US$100 times 16 years.
“Where was that money? The railway was killed. There was no power. They said they spent $16 billion, not naira, on power. Where’s the power?
“I’m warning you, don’t make any mistake of choosing any PDP candidate. What they will try to do is to cover the theft they’ve committed against the nation.”
He promised to secure the country against insurgency, banditry and other violent crimes.
The president also promised to sustain the “progress” recorded in all sectors, while dismissing allegations that the APC planned to rig the elections.

I am so pissed i dont kmow what to sat
ReplyDeleteI agree with him. Nigerians always want easy fix without trying to make a sacrifice which is a pity. Easy come, easy go. Jonathan govt literally messed up the country financially by scraping the govt purse and it doesn't help that our most important money generating source that is Oil price has fallen very low. It is going to take more than 4 years to turn the country around. Obama didn't turn around the recession inUS in 4 years too. The last thing this country needed this time is to change the govt. Wake up people and don't be deceived by false promises
DeleteBut all most of his men were all in pdp for more than 12years. He should use another tactics this is becoming stale.
DeleteWe have ALREADY made the mistake Stella !!!! Every RIGHT thinking will make that mistake,The Nigerian masses will make that mistake because we jobs, good standard of living NOT this HUNGER, killing under APC !!!!
DeleteGo and yansh down you can not tell me who to vote or not.
ReplyDeleteTell them Baba. He who have ears, let him hear. A word is enough for the wise.
ReplyDeleteWith his two eyes, he will see people voting PDP back to power. God bless Nigeria!!!
ReplyDeleteIs fine if they vote PDP in but we will all get the effect. The PDP will literally sell the country to China. Will see how the rogues - PDP that messed up the country in the first place with their excesses can do any better
DeleteThings were better under PDP
Deletebuhari u have no moral right to advise us on who to vote for.u haven't proved to be better than pdp and so your advise is useless.we have tested and seen that you and your Apc are liars and loosers.so we will vote pdp a trillion times and vote you out a zillion times.Buhari must go 2019.
ReplyDeleteYou are loved and a true son of your father.
DeleteThank you.
DeleteWas just bout to say this. He hasn't given us a reason to vote him either
DeleteAnon thank you
Deletebest comment! #buharimustgo2019
DeleteNdi ara.
ReplyDeleteLook who is talking. The person speaking should be ashamed of his abysmal performance last night. There isn't any iota of shame in you else you wouldn't say things like this. What have you done to better the economy or the security situation you met in the country? Haven't things gone from bad to worse? Nigerians should have known better that you are a failure but no, ethnic sentiment blindfolded them all. Pundits and the bookmakers are already predicting doom should you succeed with another four years. My worries are that, the gullible ones will still gamble again with their future.
ReplyDeleteIs this man OK?? Life was much better in 2015 compared to the suffering and so many suicide
ReplyDeleteHear your own statement!!! "Life was better in 2015? Because the same PDP emptied our country coffer. Is not going to be easy to transform that overnight. It takes sacrifice to make it better. PDP will do worst
DeleteSee who's talking...mtcheeew
ReplyDeleteIts not as if your APC is all that better than the thieving PDP.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree with your comment but as at this moment with the State of the Union, APC is less evil and better for the country than PDP. Just saying and hope Nigeria people knows better
DeleteWho is this anon 10.45. I know you are one of the intergrity party. Why are you trying so hard to convince us to vote for the current gvt.
DeleteBuhari doesn't even need to advice. Our minds are already made up to vote for you. The minds of Most Nigerians who want project Nigeria to work. Those who are planning to vote for PDP are mostly Biafrans and no doubt Atiku will win in Biafraland but not in Nigeria. Atiku can only defeat Buhari in Biafraland but not in Nigeria. The minds of majority of Nigerians are already made up. We are for THE NEXT LEVEL!
ReplyDeleteA plagiarized next level lolzzz. Do you know your president plagiarized the next level logo? Even Obama inaugural speech and the Nigeria air carrier logo that didn't see the light of the day. That reminds me, why are Nigerians not asking question about the Nigeria air carrier? That costs billions of tax payers money. Isn't this an act of fraud and deceit?
Delete@Eesah, just knew I would find you here...😂
Delete@Eesah, just knew I would find you here...😂
DeleteYou be diehard buharist.
It takes more than 4 years to clean the mess that Jonathan and his cabals left behind. People wake up and please do not be deceived by voting for Atiku. He is not only greedy for power and money but he also has no morals values and he will make the country worst and try to enrich his many wives and children
DeleteMr nobody biko speak for your self.
DeleteSo igbo are biafrans n youbare Nigerian. Hihihi. I won't argue with you till the presidential election is over. All I know is that bubu is not a saint.
DeleteHe is no Saint, hare.

ReplyDeleteAs the election is coming closer, Baba Buhari/jubril is getting scared of the impending outcome.
ReplyDeleteI'm not rooting for PDP but APC is certainly not in the list for me.
When the moderator asked the 'President' last night, if you lose will you accept defeat? Don't you see the look at his face? He couldn't even answer immediately. There is danger looming ooh.
DeleteTeejay! Can u tell us more about the 16billion dollars PDP spent on light. Please tell me more
ReplyDeleteI guess you already know about it. What more do you wish to know. Didn't you all stated that PDP misruled Nigeria for 16years?
DeleteI honestly don't have any interest in Buhari but between Buhari and Atiku, Buhari is one billion better for the country than over ambitious Atiku and spoilt brat Saraki that financially ruined Societe Generale bank. Wake up people and please do not be deceived by PDP the lying thieves
DeleteGbam! Please tell them. It's amazing how people forget things in a hurry. PDP is death trap.
DeleteAnyways, it's not by vomiting trash on social media, it's by action and people are ready to vote APC, they have the general interest of the people unfortunately the people are impatient.
Sai Buhari..... Kai Atiku
Yes o, Sai APC, Kai PDP
DeleteSai Buhari, Kai Atiku
Anonymous 10:57, only you dey ask question only they reply. Only dey say sai and kai only na hausa. I wish you what buhari has done to this country. As for me and my family, so far we serve God the creator and heaven and earth, the God of Elija, Isaiah and all the good bible prophets, we will not lack. I have a good job, my hubby has two jobs in this hard Nigeria as project manager and also welding inspector certified. If hungry Nigerians want, they should go and go collect bribe and vote in Buhari. Kogi wey never see food eat dey come out in numbers; they never see something.
DeleteBubu!
ReplyDeleteBABA don't waste ur time telling who not to vote, for sure 2019 is a Fair win for You.... #IWalkwithBuhari..
ReplyDeleteSee who is talking
ReplyDeleteno be u go tell us who we go vote bubu
ReplyDeleteGbam
DeleteClueless Buhari.
ReplyDeleteYes, PDP sold Power distribution but APC has successfully killed the entire concept from 15 to 20 hours power daily supply in 2015 to 0 to 10 hour supply in three (3) days. I believe we are all adults let us tell ourselves the truth. If you don't pity yourself at least pity your parents and children. Nigeria is heading towards doom if APC continues after 2019...
