The Buhari-led administration has openly decided to wave the
rise of change among Nigerian in fulfilment to his election promises. The current
administration by all well-meaning Nigerian has seen this first year of his
administration as the toughest in Nigeria’s history.
Speaking in an Islamic conference recently, the former
governor of Niger State claimed that he, together with Senate President
Abubakar Bukola Saraki, the Kwara State governor Abdulfatar Ahmed, Abubakar
Baraje and 3 others were the original proponents of the CHANGE mantra when they
met in Mecca in 2014. It was in that meeting that they decided that a Muslim
should be the president of Nigeria because Muslims are more than any other
religion in the country, as well as in population.
However, upon return from Mecca, they met with President
Goodluck Jonathan and prevailed on him to agree not to seek a second term but
later yielded to pressure from his kinsmen and cohorts to contest the election
which he lost.
Some of us think it’ll be wrong to tell Nigerians that the
CHANGE Agenda was a religious agenda and not a change Nigerians desired and got
through the ballot. By this, Aliyu has truly opened the eyes of so many
Nigerians as regards the APC CHANGE MANTRA!
Speaking on the intrigues of his ongoing trial at the Code
of Conduct Tribunal over asset declaration issues and the role of his party,
the All Progressives Congress (APC), the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola
Saraki told Nigerian recently that his refusal to support a Muslim/Muslim
ticket for the APC in the 2015 presidential election is largely responsible for
his ordeal.
