Former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd),has called on all eligible voters in Nigeria to take the advantage of 2015 general elections to vote the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) out of power.
Buhari was speaking in Ado Ekiti yesterday during the commissioning of 12,000 -seater Ekiti Parapo Square, condemned the alleged the tyranny of the Peoples Democratic Party in the country
The former Head of State urged the eligible voters to collect their permanent voters cards to vote out the ruling PDP in next year’s election
Buhari, who was a special Guest of honour at the event challenged the elites across the country to use their networks to educate the less privileged masses on the need to exercise their civic responsibility by trooping out to vote for the right candidates during the elections.
The former Military Head of State said :”It is no doubt that Nigerians have been traumatized under the PDP leadership and Nigeria will be in trouble if we carry on the way the PDP has been doing in Nigeria.
“That is why it is important for we elites to talk to the less privileged to collect their permanent voter cards in preparation for the 2015 elections. This is the only missile against the PDP tyranny.
“We must take this seriously because the APC is seriously determined to offer a better alternative platform for Nigerians . So , we have to be prepared for the next year elections”,
Buhari praised Governor Fayemi for his outstanding success in the last four years, expressing joy to be part of the Governor’s success stories.
“I am indeed very happy to be part of this success story. Fayemi has been able to prove that what is expected of any leader is selfless service. And I want to believe that all these legacy projects will remain in his name forever even after leaving office”, he said
Speaking at the event , Governor Fayemi reiterated the need for all and sundry to embrace peace, saying that economic and academic endeavours can only thrive in an atmosphere of peace and tranquillity
The governor asserted that the State has witnessed peace and accelerated physical development in his four years in office.This, he said, was attested by the World Bank’s ‘Doing Business’ index which puts Ekiti as one of the four Nigerian States that have made
“The most progress and stood out for introducing several high impact reforms that narrowed down the gap to best practices the most”.Fayemi further stressed the need for all Ekiti indigenes to unite and take ownership of the Ekiti project so that the State can continue to have a “pool of achievers worthy of the State, National and Global recognition.”
“I therefore charge the good people of Ekiti State to push the bounds of possibilities for our future by uniting more than ever before to protect our heritage of honour as well as the modest developmental gains we have made in recent years.
We must celebrate today by joining our hearts and minds in one accord, and decide to outgrow the teething challenges of statehood such as the arbitrariness we have witnessed in recent times”, the Governor said.While speaking on the State Merit Award, the Governor said the award was aimed at restoring the values for which Ekiti people are known as well as redeeming “the meaning of who our heroes are”.
Governor Fayemi, who stated that it is incontrovertible that Ekiti is the home of intellectuals, said Olaoluwa’s feat as Africa’s youngest Ph.D holder in Mathematics at the age of 24 years will challenge the younger generation of Ekiti indigenes to brace up with “avowed determination to surpass the academic excellence already displayed by Olaoluwa.
