Lol! 70year old Chief Bode George opts for exile plus I regret my action – Godsday Orubebe

According to Vanguard:

All we have been doing to restructure the country has been lost. We have been trying to ensure balance in the polity but all that has gone. What else will I be doing here?”

Meet the new Nigerian President 2015 General Muhammad Buhari

Nigerians have decided as Gen.Buhari wins in Borno -APC 473,543.

 It has been drama,suspense,intrigue in this 2015 election. Nigerians were determined, come rain come shine,despite the fact the casting ran into the night the citizens were eager to get it over and done with, to the extent that the people used their touch on their phones,light from their cars and even gathered money together to hire generators when the power went off to ensure that the votes were counted after their casting.

Some people came as early as 8am to cast their vote at their polling unit but everything was delayed yet they still waited patiently even till 2am to see that the election was a success.

 Congrats to GMB as he won in most parts of the states in Nigeria.

My question now is.......What will the new Nigeria look like in the next five years?
