We were legions who started professing General Muhammadu Buhari’s way of life and politics, we saw in him a man we can trust with redirecting the nation’s affairs; a country economically raped, humanly cannibalized, politically manipulated and administratively destroyed by bandits and their cohorts.
Some of us did not just become Buharist because PMB won election, we have stood with his integrity and ultra patriotism right from his military incursion into leadership. I know so many astute Buharist who are in this fast moving train with no stake for personal benefits, we give what we give because we believe in what Muhammadu Buhari represents, whether in or out of power.
Among the legions of Buharist are the turncoats, they came with a mindset to celebrate a repeat of what Buhari is in his 20 months as military head of state. They thought, thieves will be thrown into gallows with the grinding patience of the courts, they forget that his second coming is one of rule of law. Don’t blame them, they are patriots who are angry and are against the monumental corruption that had taken firm and uncompromising grip of Nigeria. But, they forget that at this second coming, PMB is limited by the frustrating democratic structures to which he must govern.
Most so-called Buharist have lost their way in the labyrinth of politics, their hopes are daily been dashed because they fail to see the frustrating machineries of government, they want results but ignore the tripod that holds democracy. It is not their fault, they have never truly seen the pathetic mess 16 years of PDP maladministration left the nation.
Being a Buharist comes with sacrifices, genuine followers of PMB do not live in another clime. We all experience the conundrum that stares us all, we are not immune to poverty and lack, but we know the prices that needed to be paid to get Nigeria out of the woods.
It is disheartening seeing supposedly Buharist who joined the train for selfish reasons, either for appointment or some form of benefit become trumpeters of disharmony.
Genuine Buharist make sacrifices daily knowing that PMB is human and will make mistakes, some of which are acts committed by lieutenants that wants to cleave to the evil of the past. We will continue to support Buhari because healing does not come easy neither does change of a nation comes with whispers.
My consolation and that of several others is that, the more they try to demonize PMB, the more we will stand by him. We will not falter, we will not fear and we will not give up on him and Nigeria.
For those who are so frightened of their believe in him, you never were a part of us. We thank you for showing us that believes for you is tied to personal satisfaction with no sense of history.
For the millions on the street who daily caress their PVC in preparation to reelect PMB, I say thank you for not drifting with the wind and buying into the demonic messages sold to you by harbingers of criminality.
The street does not care for the erroneous messages of PMB’s enemies on social media or the mainstream media conspiracy, they know their hopes lie with the innocence of Buhari.
Let all those pretentious Buharist leave now, their infantile diatribes and antics will be in the open for all to see. Politics is local, the locals are the true, unadulterated Buharist and when the time comes, the victory dance will shame the enemies.
On this note, I thank all the true Buharist; we came, we are seeing and we will conquer. [myad]
