I’ll not disappoint Nigerians – Buhari
Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), has
said he will not disappoint Nigerians if given the mandate to lead in 2015.He promised
to transform the country positively.
Addressing the CPC North-West zone
Contact and Mobilisation Committee in Kaduna on Wednesday, the former military
leader insisted the elections of 2003, 2007 and that of 2011, lacked fairness
and credibility.
Buhari, who said this had resulted in
Nigeria’s poor development, pointed out that the Peoples Democratic Party had
almost ruined the country.
He, therefore, urged Nigerians to
support the opposition parties merger initiative to wrest power from PDP.
National Coordinator of the Contact and
Mobilisation Committee, Senator Solomon Ewuga, said the meeting was to sensitize
party members on the planned merger.
He
called for their support in order to ensure that the proposed merger becomes a
reality
No assassination attempt on Dino Melaye-Abuja Police Commissioner
According to PREMUIM
TIMES on Tuesday evening, Mr. Melaye said he reported the attempted
assassination to the Abuja police boss and would further look up to God for
more protection.
Mr. Ogunbayo confirmed that Mr. Melaye did actually report
the incident, but said it could not be described as an assassination attempt as
there was no evidence of gunshot.
The police boss narrated what Mr. Melaye reported to the
police. He said the ex-lawmaker said he was on his way home from the National
Hospital, Abuja in his airconditioned car, all windows wound up, and was
listening to cool music when he noticed a range rover sport golf car drive past
his.
“The car was said to have parked few meters away from his and the next thing he (Mr. Melaye) heard was a loud sound which he thought was a gunshot. Dino Melaye never said the shot was aimed at him,” the police boss said.
Mr. Ogunbayo said, “The police have gone to the scene of the
crime and we could not find any car parked there; no trace of shells on the
ground.”
“And there is car dealer store at the area which we went to
ask if they heard any gunshot and they said no they never heard any gunshot,”
he added.
The police boss said further investigation showed that Mr. Melaye’s car window is not bullet proof; and if there was a gunshot it would have penetrated straight into the car and he would have been shot dead. He said the window has a sign of a crack on it, which could have been a result of the loud sound.
“If they had wanted to kill Dino, they do not need to drive and park meters away from Dino’s car before shooting, they would have just blocked his car and shoot him at the spot, so that cannot be called an attempted assassination. And how then is it possible for you to be in your car wind up enjoying the air condition and a very cool music and then you hear a gunshot?” he said.
Mr. Ogunbayo said Mr. Melaye’s car has been returned to him and further investigations are ongoing on the matter. Mr. Melaye, formerly a member of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party is now one of the most vociferous critics of the federal government. He is now a member of the opposition Action Congress of Nigeria and has been at the forefront of the demand for probity and accountability in government. We are trying to put the police claims to Mr. Melaye and we shall provide updates soon.
