My Campaign Promises Can Be Changed". - Buhari.

**our promises of Change and APC manifesto, are not Quran or Bible, they are subject to change to meet reality.

The President-elect Gen. Muhammadu Buhari has shocked Nigerians when he announced that the promises that the All Progressives Congress, APC, made during the nationwide presidential campaign which were contained in the Party’s manifesto were not words from the Quran or Bible, adding that the pledges are subject to change.

Buhari who stated this during an interactive session with journalists on Television Continental, TVC reiterated that the party’s manifestos were subject to modification, as they are only made for election purposes only.

The Buhari-led APC had promised fundamental political reforms and improvement in governance, more transparency and accountability.
The party also promised to urgently secure the territorial integrity of the Nation. It said it will never leave the defense of the nation in the hands of hunters, children, and civilian JTF. 
The APC presidential candidate had also said that he would ensure that the Naira was equal to the Dollar in value, if elected president.
During the interview Buhari emphasized that on ministerial appointment, the party has a great role to play.
“I would ask Nigerian political observers to study our manifesto; it is not a Bible or Quran which you can’t change to meet reality.
“Our manifesto was made by very experienced Nigerians but it’s subject to modification.
“It took several months to arrive at it, so whatever we said in our manifesto, people must accept the fact that we have to modify it.
‘’On my choice for ministerial appointment; my party has a role to play, but most importantly we need seasoned technocrat, people of professional and personal integrity.’’

In reaction, an advocacy group, Lawyers for Change, has charged the President-elect to focus on his campaign promises, especially with regards to recovering the Chibok girls abducted over a year ago.
National Coordinator of the group, Mr. Adesina Ogunlana added that Buhari must not take Nigerians for granted, but have to live up to his earlier promise adding that his comments after the general elections contradicted his promise before the elections.

On President Jonathan calling to concede defeat even before the announcement of result by Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Buhari who have never accepted any election result in his life, stated “What the President did by calling me even before the announcement by INEC, shows a remarkable statesmanship and that has stabilized the politics of this country.”

"Hopefornigeria". As useless as guardiannewsUSA. Not a single truth you can find in those guys.
The very nature of the english alone gives this article off as some poorly concocted lie from an illiterate.



Shame on you op. This is indeed desperation run amok.

A thread about that interview was on the front page yesterday , why was nothing if this sort mentioned there? HopeForNigeria is a PDP propaganda Facebook page operated by bigots from a certain tribe. Anyone who bothers to read like 5 posts on that shitty page will immediately realize that.

I wish it is never true but just a mere fabricated story. GEJ's administration has made Nigeria of the present different from Nigeria of the past. So,we desperate await the implementation of those promises.

I sincerely and earnestly pray that this was a clear joke. Sir, we voted for you on the strength of your sound manifesto (though you couldn't publicly defend it via debate).

Once the basic needs and aspirations of Nigerians are met, we are ok.

Folks, next time dont trust politicians.....no matter how convincing they sound.

Full text of interview here : www.nairaland.com/2273674/full-text-video-tvc-interviews#33034020

Read and come up with your own interpretation, he mentioned initiatives more important than their manifesto's state as subject to modification, which is true, a good competent captain will now take over and campaign promises are not just enough, the more we go the more positive initiaves will keep springing up which the leadership of the legacy parties will waste no effort implementing according to the rule of law.

This is one of so many reasons i like the General and Apc, they deliberated on everything. Continue acting mad satanis.ts, that's what makes you the opposition today.

I just dey laugh. grin
