Four Years Of Buhari Will Be Four Years Of Nightmares – Fasehun

Founder of the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) and National Chairman of the Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN), Dr. Frederick Fasehun, has asked Nigerians to prepare for years of nightmares, if they fail to re-elect President Goodluck Jonathan in the 2015 polls.

Fasehun said this while receiving Special Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan on Niger Delta Affairs, Hon. Kingsley Kuku, yesterday, at his Century Hotels, Okota office.

According to him, Jonathan deserves to be re-elected because of his achievements since becoming president.

He recalled the reign of the All Progressives Congress (APC), presidential candidate, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) as military Head of State and said he would not like to experience it again.

“I have been under the military before. Leopards don’t change their spots. What baffles me is Buhari has guts to attempt governing Nigeria again. It will not come to pass. When he came to power in 1984, he asked political leaders to report at the nearest police station. Many of them died in detention. That is the man who wants to come back to rule Nigeria. I don’t want to experience Buhari again. Four years of Buhari will be four years of nightmares.”

Unlike Buhari and some of his predecessors, Fasehun said Jonathan has refused to abuse his presidential powers. He therefore vowed to mobilize support for him.

“For five years no Nigerian has been sentenced (extra-judicially) outside the courts. Jonathan is a democracy addict. He takes criticisms in his strides. We will work and ensure Jonathan gets four more years. Let Mr. President be rest assured that in this part of the country (South-West), any contestant with him will lose his deposit. We must go round from hamlet to village, from town to cities campaigning for Jonathan. Let us not lose the opportunity to enjoy Jonathan’s administration further. If we did, we will regret it,” Fasehun said.
