According to Muazu, the kind of President Nigerians
and Nigeria want at the moment, has to be a President that would further drive
home the dividends of democracy and use dialogue to heal the wounds of the
nation.
In statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Tony Amadi,
Muazu said, “There are many reasons why Nigeria must not return to a quasi
military dictatorship led by a war lord whose democratic credential are
suspect.
“It is also important to know that the power of the
President is awesome and if you give it to a man who is not coolheaded leader
like President Jonathan, he will certainly throw the country into chaos at any
time.”
Hailing President Jonathan, PDP National Chairman
said, he “is a tested and trusted democrat who is well experienced in running
democratically elected government having been elected as a Deputy Governor,
Governor, Vice President and now President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“General Buhari is the product of military
dictatorship that cannot operate in a free country, he is unlike President
Jonathan who at all times favours dialogue and persuasion which are the
hallmark of democratic governance.
“We don’t want a combative presidency, which would be
busy witch-hunting perceived enemies for trumped charges, then jail them for 200
years. If you read his acceptance speech you will note the language employed
show what direction his government will focus.
“The choice before Nigerians in 2015 is quite clear.
Do you want a transforming leadership or a retrogressive return to a quasi military
dictatorship clad in democratic toga or do you want an environment of human
right abuses where people live in fear? Yet it is supposed to be democratic
setting.
“All the gains of the past years will be lost when
autocratic regime that General Buhari is known for takes over power in Nigeria
“, explaining that this is the choice Nigerians will have to make in the
February 2015 Presidential election.
“What is needed is a giant leap into democratic
governance and not the return of the ‘Jack boot’ era of military in politics of
the ‘kill and go’ of the past.
“A President Jonathan re election is what Nigeria and
Nigerians need at this moment. We need a progressive and persuasive government
that would use dialogue to heal the wounds of the nation. Nigeria and Nigerians
have passed the era of jack boot politics which belongs to the past.
“Every nation at time need leaders that would make the
needed and necessary scrafice and this is what is what the re election of
President Jonathan represents. All over the world, leaders with qualities of
President Jonathan are being elected and not a drawback to democratic
governance which the APC represent.”
