“At 51, we are not a nation yet. There is security challenge everywhere. As we prepare for October 1, celebration, Boko Haram is threatening, the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) is threatening to bomb everywhere and in the midst of all these, we have a commander-in-chief who said he is not a General, he is not a dictator and he is so clueless about what is to be done to get the public get back to track.
“We have had a situation where the security agencies are shifting blames to themselves. The police, the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), are quarrelling over who released who. Couple with this, is the fact that the economy of Nigeria today is partially dead.
“The only activity going on in Nigeria today is the spending of oil money and corruption. The level of poverty in Nigeria is unimaginable. I have not seen this level of poverty anywhere in the world where a country rated as one of the highest producers of oil in the world, harbours most of the poorest people in this part of the planet,” Buhari said.
Bemoaning the wide gap that exists between the rich and the poor in the country, Buhari further lamented that the gap is widening everyday, saying “the rich are getting richer and the poor, getting poorer.”
He said that with the rate at which Nigeria is going, if care was not taken, a day is coming when all that will be left for the poor to eat in Nigeria is the rich.
At 51, Buhari wished that Nigeria will get its acts right, get responsible leadership, saying Nigeria has stayed for too long under leaders who behave like dogs.
“We need a responsible leadership, we need a new political order based on equity, justice and fair play, where the wealth of the land will be used to satisfy the needs of all Nigerians; where every citizen of Nigeria can aspire to the best height where they will not be limited by the circumstances around them.
“A Nigeria that works, where there is electricity, where there are good roads, where all the infrastructure are functioning. A Nigeria where our children will go to school and learn; a Nigeria where health facilities will be available to all.
We want a Nigeria where people will live peacefully as people of Nigeria rather than enemies fighting themselves. That is my dream for Nigeria,” Buhari stated.
