'I will perform better, give me another four years' - Buhari tells Nigerians
President Muhammadu Buhari has assured Nigerians that if he survives the next four years he would perform better.
Speaking on Thursday during an interactive session with a select group of Nigerian professionals based in the US and Canada, the president disclosed that he had warned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the security agencies to ensure that every vote counts in 2019.
Buhari said he was not slow as assumed by some people, adding that he was trying to follow the law, especially as democracy is different from military rule.
He also recounted his experience in politics saying that he suffered electoral corruption from 2003 when he started contesting for the presidency and had at each point, pursued the case up to the Supreme Court but lost.
Buhari said: “I’m always conscious of the ordinary people because they are the ones that always vote for me. A lot of big men have no time to go and queue on the line for hours.
“There were even pregnant women who were on the line for hours and they delivered. They are my constituencies; they always vote for me.”
