The presidential candidate of the All Progressives’ Congress (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), on Tuesday gained an unusual support as the Islamic Terrorist group in the Northeast, Boko Haram, pledged its total support for the former military ruler.
Boko Haram, in a
lengthy press statement circulated through email by its spokesperson
and a copy made available to The Nation Newspaper, Abubakar Shekau,
anchored its decision on the need to deliver Nigeria, especially the
northern region, from the crunching effects of poverty, underdevelopment
and insecurity.
It also lamented
the unconcerned attitude of the President Goodluck Jonathan’s
administration at the unrelenting degradation of the northern region
environment, taking a hard stance also on the increasing insecurity in
the northeast.
President Jonathan, according to Boko Haram, does not deserve a second term in office.
The Islamic
terrorist group also commended Buhari for proposing to stabilize the oil
market and scrap the office of the First Lady – which it considered to
be a drain on the nation’s resources and a conduit through which corrupt
government officials stole across all levels of government.
It said, “Boko
Haram has, upon careful consideration of the state of the nation,
endorses and fully supports the presidential candidate of the All
Progressive Congress (APC), Gen. Mohammadu Buhari.
“Our decision to
throw our full support on Gen. Mohammadu Buhari stems from the pathetic
state in which the country has been put by the government of Goodluck
Jonathan and our strong believe in Buhari as the man and change the
country needs.
“We have been
putting our trust in Gen. Mohammadu Buhari as our spiritual leader to
show us direction. This was one of the reasons we nominated him as our
mediator, but as usual, President Jonathan rejected this wonderful
proposal.”
“We urge every
Nigerian to vote for APC and Gen. Mohammadu Buhari. He is the only
person that can end this disease in Nigeria called corruption. As a
human being, we are aware that he made several mistakes in the past such
as ruling for 2 years as a Head of State without a legacy or a single
project to his name and government. He also jailed innocent Nigerians
such as Alex Ekwueme, Ambrose Alli, Tai Solarin, Sam Mbakwe, Jim Nwobodo
etc. He also used retrogressive laws to kill Nigerians and clamped down
on the Press – where Journalists were jailed. Anybody can make these
mistakes. He is not God that can’t make mistake.
Buhari is the
right man for the top job especially for us northerners because he will
develop our region for good, not this ‘cosmetic development’ being
executed by Jonathan. As a PTF Chairman, Buhari executed 80% of the
projects in the north – which show that he has the interest of his
people at heart. Buhari and Abacha also made sure that the north
benefited from the sharing the national cake. Due to Buhari’s love for
his people, Alhaji Shehu Shagari was not jailed but his Vice, Dr. Alex
Ekwueme was sent to Kirikiri maximum prison. Buhari also didn’t touch
our brother, Ibrahim Awwal – who was caught at Heathrow airport London,
with 14 million pounds. These are the things that make us to love
Buhari. He has our interest at heart.
“Under Buhari’s
watch, N25 billion disappeared from PTF accounts and found its way into
the pockets of our brothers in the north. Abacha also freely shared the
Nigeria’s resources with our people and Transparency International was
jealous as they listed Nigeria as the most corrupt country in the world
in that period. This is just pure jealousy and envy. Abacha never stole
money, even Buhari can attest to this.”
“Our main reason
of supporting Buhari is because he’s a typical example of what we’re
preaching: ‘Western education is sinful.’ This, he has demonstrated as
no single educational qualification can be traced to his name, yet he
reached the apex of his military career and ruled the country. Is this
not a proof that Western education is bullshit? A man without a
certificate ruled the country and wants to rule it again, yet those with
numerous certificates can’t even head their local government. We want
to use this medium to warn those that have been asking for Buhari’s
certificate to stop it or be bombed by Boko Haram.”
“Finally, every
Muslim loves to live in an Islamic State, so we urge Muslims to vote for
Buhari in en masse. He is the only man that can Islamize Nigeria where
Muslims would live happily. He has been advocating for this since 2001
where he openly said he would keep on supporting the spread of Sharia
across Nigeria. Which other proof do you Muslims need to vote for Buhari
so that we can live peacefully in the Islamic State he would soon
create?”
To the infidels
that don’t want to vote for Buhari, remember what happened in 2011 after
the elections. 2015 post-election violence would be more severe than
2011 if Buhari loses. We would not only kill Corpers, but we would also
kill every Christian and set their churches ablaze in every northern
state.
Vote for Buhari or be ready to die. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
Insah Allah, Buhari is our next president, come February 14, 2015!
Signed
Abubakar Shekau, Boko Haram leader.
