He hasn’t got the electoral advantage to win an election. He has done a
lot of things in the past, which shows that he hasn’t got democratic
norms. For instance, the government of Lagos State was to do the railway
system and we know what he did about it. Nigeria has one of the worst
railway systems in Africa today. Lagos State was going to do water
system; he (Buhari) cancelled it. He even cancelled the railway system
(metroline) in Lagos State. The railway system was approved by Shehu
Shagari and the agreement was vetted by me as the Attorney-General and
Lagos State deposited $50 million to a French company, which they
forfeited and then they were asked to pay damages again in arbitration.
Buhari was told that and he didn’t care. His belief was that South would
be better developed than the North. Anybody who thinks like that is not
worthy of being President of this country. That is one of the reasons
he has no political advantage for any political party. We all know what
he did about human rights abuses. He imprisoned many political leaders.
IS THAT WHY HE HAS CONTESTED IN THE LAST THREE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS AND LOST?
Let him contest again. If he does again, I don’t see him winning and I mean it.
BUT BUHARI FOUGHT CORRUPTION.
There is nobody in this country who has not fought corruption, one way or the other. But if you remember when he became Head of State, he was from the North, the Vice President was also from the North (Kwara) and the Secretary to the Federal Government was also from the North, as if South did not exist at that time. That is a serious wrong political arithmetic. People will not forget that and I mean it. But when he left power through a military coup against him, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida came to power and he took as Number Two people from Abia and later Edo State. So, we had a fair balance at that time. If you are doing Nigerian politics, you must have a fair balance. Anybody that made that mistake again as Buhari did, he will lose election.
