NO ONE WILL GO TO BED HUNGRY UNDER APC GOVERNMENT--BUHARI.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, shared the January 12 speech delivered by Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) at the Inauguration of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
First Buhari thanked the party for giving him a chance to act as its presidential candidate in the February elections.
“I would also like to express my gratitude to all of you for the confidence you have decided to repose in me to be the presidential flag bearer of our great party. I feel honoured and thoroughly humbled.”
After having reinstated the major principles and values of the APC, the former military Head of State touched upon several serious issues, including insurgency and inability of the acting to government to tackle this problem.
See an extract of his speech below:
“We undertake to end the impunity of the ruling People’s Democratic Party, PDP, a party that has proved clueless in every material particular. It has failed to address any of the important concerns of the people of this country. It has filed to deal squarely with the great security challenge that has faced this nation within these last five years. And it has remained touchy and impervious to all constructive criticism, and without concern for human life and for the suffering going on in the land.
As we campaigned, Boko Haram attackedBaga townin Borno State, reportedly killing 2,000 people; but to this clueless government, this toll is just a number, a statistic that adds up to the litany that has gone before it. And worst of all, this PDP government has split the countryalong all known fault lines. It is time to send them into deserved retirement; which, in the normal cause of events, it will have done nothing to deserve.
On our part, we have solemnly promised this nation that we are going to secure it against all threats, manage its resources efficiently and with demonstrable transparency, and then fix whatever is amiss in it. Under an APC government, no one will go to bed hungry, angry with the government or with the fear of insurgents or nocturnal visitors. We shall secure the government for the people and fix it. And, verily, we shall deliver on every of our promises.”
The politician continued with officially inaugurating the Campaign Council “under the leadership of His Excellency Chief Rotimi Amaechi.
Buhari praised Amaechi characterizing him as a committed “fighter”.
“Needless to add, Chief Amaechi is a fighter who has never failed in any assignment, and every member of the presidential campaign council has been chosen on account of experience and expertise and proven track record.
With such a team and with the unprecedented acceptance that the APC enjoys in all parts of the country, the question is not whether the party will defeat the PDP. The question is the nature of the landslide with which the clueless party will be sent packing. I promise you that the landslide will be unprecedented.
And with suggested terms of reference as your guide, I urge you to put all your trust in God and the support of the people; and victory is yours. May God guide and bless the APC in its quest to rescue Nigeria. And to us, it is a done deal.
Less than two years ago, APC was just a dream. It became a promise. Then it became a reality; and, today, it is a miracle — a miracle waiting to happen. And it will happen.
I would like to thank all of you for your patience and attention.”
It is worth mentioning that the key strategy of the APC’s campaign is linked with the “change” slogan. It embodies the party’s desire to bring positive development to the country and manage the lingering challenges.
