The mantra doing the rounds now in the opposition circles is: Buhari is the change we need. One wonders how much of this Buhari the orchestrators know. Or are just blinded by the propaganda of the All Progressives Congress (the APC), a political party, which wants everybody to believe its government will come with it a magic wand to drive away all the nation’s problems in one fell-swoop? What is even more worrisome is that they believe the magician is Muhammadu Buhari. This puritan image being painted of the man is simply not true, and Nigerians need to be told the truth about the real Buhari, who he is and what he actually represents; and why his returning to power has become such an obscene obsession for him.
Perhaps how Buhari carried out his PTF assignment provides the best vista into his person and the psychoanalytic contents of his character. Three things stand out irrepressibly in the Buahri’s harrowing PTF days, namely: 1) his concentration of over 70% (in some cases, 100%) of all the PFT projects in the north regardless of the fact that the regions in the south might have greater needs for the PTF intervention; 2) the massive frauds that went unsupervised under his watch, which he publicly acknowledged but claimed ignorance and no benefit
When, in 1994, the late General Sani Abacha, invited the former Head of State to serve as head of the newly created Petroleum (Special) Trust Fund (PTF), he gave one condition for this acceptance: He must be given the title of Executive Chairman, and he must have a free hand to run the Fund as he deemed fit, without any interference from anyone, including the head of state.
