This pitch from the Presidency had a paternal ring to it, and it was clearly meant to reinforce the even more familiar representation of President Buhari as a man of integrity, Mai Gaskiya, in the earthy parlance of the talakawa of the North. President Buhari might indeed be honest in the peculiar manner he has chosen to be.
In this sense, I define political success in terms of electoral mileage and ascendancy. With the kind of pessimism that decades of massive corruption, grinding poverty and astonishing failure have induced in the ordinary Nigerian, it would be difficult to find that politician that can enter the realm of politics, achieve electoral success and still be expected to stand without soiled hands.
Why did the president not fold his hand akimbo and remain unperturbed when campaigns opened for his re-election? Indeed, why did he run back to the same set of individuals that he had apparently abandoned after they helped to elect him in 2015? The truth is that Buhari needed the services of these individuals who were ready to soil their hands, if needs be, in order to see the president re-elected for whatever reasons.
In this unfolding narrative of “Ourmumudondo”, a spokesperson of the Buhari re-election campaign and supposed human rights lawyer, Festus Keyamo, is alleged to have offered millions of naira disguised as payment for a song in support of Buhari’s presidential election to Charly Boy.
