SAN FRANCISCO, February 09, (THEWILL) – The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, Monday, declared that Nigeria was in crisis, asking the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) to support his presidential aspiration in order to bring the needed change to the country.
Buhari stated this while addressing this year’s delegates congress of the NLC in Abuja.
“Nigeria is in crisis. Our country is facing grievous challenges in numerous sectors. In the light of recent events, the three most pertinent at this time are security, the state of the economy and corruption forming a terrible troika that must be tackled all at once before we can achieve any meaningful progress,” Buhari said.
“You believe that the labour of our heroes past and present shall never be in vain. You believe that our hopes and dreams can become reality. You believe in a nation bound in freedom, peace and unity. You believe that we can rebuild the broken walls.”
“You believe that our great country can set a standard for all of Africa to see. I pray that you will give me the opportunity to play a part in bringing about this CHANGE that the All Progressives Congress, the APC, so strongly desires for our country, Nigeria.”
According to Buhari, “I am not a novice when it comes to participating in the struggle to deliver Nigeria from the power of darkness. Many times, my efforts have earned me the wrath and vengeance of crooks and thieves. What I want to assure everyone in this room and across the length and breadth of this vast country is that I will do my best for you.”
