The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Adams Oshiomhole, declared President Muhammadu Buhari’s policy programmes are for the benefit of the poor and not to enrich himself.

Adams, while addressing APC supporters during President Buhari’s campaign visit to Gombe on Saturday, February 2, said the policies of Buhari were targeted at addressing the challenges of the poor, News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports.

According to him, “The programmes and policies of President Buhari, particularly those social programmes, are designed to focus and address the challenges confronting the forgotten majority of the Nigerian masses.

“I am not surprised that our opponents have been attacking these policies. To them, money given to the poor is money wasted, but when they steal and give to the few, it is money well spent.

“As we approach the elections, Nigerians must know that President Buhari is a president that believes in Nigeria.

“He believes that the wealth of our nation should be managed in a way as to reflect the quality of life of the majority of the people.

“A president who believes that the child of the poor who goes to school should have at least one square meal compared to the one that if elected, will enrich himself.’’

According to Oshiomhole, the overwhelming crowd that came to the Pantami stadium to welcome the president shows that the people of Gombe have spoken loud and clear in favour of Buhari.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had reported that the national chairman of the APC, Adams Oshiomhole, asked President Buhari to probe the alleged mismanagement carried out by ex-president, Olusegun Obasanjo, when he ruled the country.

Oshiomhole made the request when he spoke in Damaturu, Yobe state, during the APC presidential campaign.

The APC national chairman accused Obasanjo of bribing members of the National Assembly with millions of naira during his tenure.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
