Why I Declared For 2019 Now – Buhari
on: April 12, 2018, 09:20:30 AM



President Muhammadu Buhari has explained that he announced his intention to run for second term to end speculations on it in order to focus on governance. The Nigerian leader had on Monday declared to seek another term in office.

Buhari said, “I declared before leaving home because Nigerians were talking too much about whether I would run or not. So, I felt I should break the ice. We have many things to focus on, like security, agriculture, economy, anti-corruption, and many others. We needed to concentrate on them, and politics should not be a distraction. The majority of Nigerians appreciate what we are doing, and that is why I am re-contesting,” the President said in a statement.
 
He made this known while receiving the Archbishop of Canterbury, His Grace Justin Welby in London Wednesday.

The President recounted some successes of the administration to his guest, with whom he has built a deep friendship in recent times, and was quite particular about strides in agriculture.

“We have cut the importation of rice by about 90%, saving billions of dollars in the process. People who rushed into petrol money have now gone back to agriculture. Even professionals have gone back to the land. Nigeria should be able to feed itself comfortably soon. I am so pleased,” the President said.

On the war against insurgency, he stressed the need for continuous education of the people, “so that they can be free from religious manipulation,” adding that no true religion advocates the hurting or killing of the innocent.
