ReachForth Nigeria, a non-governmental organisation has issued a statement claiming that former Head of State and Chieftain of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari is not too old to rule Nigeria.
According to THE NATION, Chairman of the group, Rev. Yunana Oganto, said, "The Reachforth Nigeria has sat down and taken assessment of political happenings in the country and we saw that Nigeria needs a leadership that will eventually restore the peace and security that we have been enjoying before recent happenings.
"In view of that, we looked at all those who are presenting themselves as aspirants to be elected to lead this country, and we saw that General Buhari is the only one that can be entrusted with the leadership of this country, and we can be rest assured that Nigeria will return to its glory and its security will be guaranteed and it’s economy will grow as it use to be.
"This is because we have also looked at the desperation of the present administration led by President Jonathan and the way he is going about the leadership of the country and we believe that he cannot be entrusted with the leadership of this country for another four years.
"We also took note of the fact that this desperation has made Jonathan and his co-travelers in the PDP, to become so obsessed with winning election, than in providing the good governance that we expected from them. This is the basic reason why we felt that Buhari, if given the chance and the mandate by Nigerians, will be able to lead this country to the promised land.
"We should be mindful of the fact that wisdom is the greatest asset to a leader. Buhari’s age is a possessor of that wisdom and we need people of wisdom, high calibre wisdom to provide the needed leadership which Nigerians want.
“If Nigerians are followers of history, they will realize that the great Soviet Union and even the United States of America had leaders who were elected in their seventies. Ronald Reagan is one of such leaders and he did tremendously well in restoring the economy as well as the dignity of their people.
“So, we think that we have tried the young ones. Gen Gowon was about 32 years old and Murtala was in his thirties. So we think that we have tried younger people and where has it led us? Even though they were military people. Shagari was not that old when he came in. He was just about the age of our present leader.
“So, we have tried all these and we discovered that it has not led us to have that kind of leadership that will bring Nigeria into the climax of the leadership in Africa.
