“My dear, I do not like to talk about it. I’m not interested in 2015, because you and I do not know whether we will reach 2015.
We
do not know who will be alive to witness 2015. “The truth is, 2015 is
really not my business and it is politically irresponsible for people to
be talking about 2015.” “No, no, no!! Boko Haram is not as a result of
misrule; definitely not. Sometimes people say it is as a result of
poverty; definitely not. Boko Haram is a local terror group,” he said in
an interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in 2013.
“Over 70%
of what are called corruption (cases), even by EFCC (Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission) and other anti-corruption agencies, is not
corruption, but common stealing,” he said during a presidential media
chat. “Whether we are Muslims or Christians; rich or poor; from the
north or the south; east or west; regardless of our political
affiliations. This is a time to pull together,” on the 53rd anniversary
of Nigeria’s independence.
“The stronger the boat (of democracy),
the more it is able to meet the challenges of its voyage and deliver on
its promise to citizens” “The air of freedom we breathe today is the
result of the sacrifices of thousands of pro-democracy activists, human
rights campaigners and others, who organised as civil society.” “My
political ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian.” “No minister
will be allowed to go on a mission of endless search for solutions.”
“In the comfort of our offices, let us not forget that majority of our
people live below the poverty line.” “Terrorism has no conscience and
spares no one.”
“Any society or country that closes the vital
valves of its democratic space cannot develop at a reasonable pace.”
“Where there is no opportunity for one man one vote, there will be no
accountability and no responsibility.” “Democracy is a journey that
every nation mindful of advancing the liberty of its citizens must
undertake.” “Nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any
Nigerian.” “Our votes must count! One man, one vote! One woman, one
vote! One youth, one vote!” “Nobody should rig for me. I am assuring
Nigerians that though I am contesting, nobody must manipulate votes in
my favour. Our votes must count.” “I congratulate the candidates of the
other political parties.
I regard them not as opponents, but as
partners.” “In presenting myself for service, I make no pretence that I
have a magic wand that will solve all of Nigeria’s problems or that I am
the most intelligent Nigerian.” “I have come to launch a campaign of
ideas, not one of calumny. I have come to preach love, not hate. I have
come to break you away from divisive tendencies of the past, which have
slowed our drive to true nationhood.
I have no enemies to fight.
You are all my friends and we share a common destiny.” “Democracy calls
for sacrifice and tolerance, an open ear and a strong voice.” “For the
PDP family, the contest for party offices does not produce winners and
losers.” “I believe in the politics of give and take.” “Separation of
power is not separation of government.” “I am happy that the black man
has put the shame of dispossession behind him and is moving on” “The
dark patches in the Niger Delta will give way to light.” “On the
football field, nobody cares who scores for Nigeria.
You can be a
Musa or a Moses; you can be a Christopher or a Mustapha, nobody cares.”

integrity of the Nigerian state. Our will is strong, because our faith
lies in the indivisibility of Nigeria.” “Nigerians are peace-loving
people; these sad events perpetrated by those who do not wish our nation
well have not changed the essential character of our people.” “No
matter what it takes, we will win this war against terror.” “Africa must
declare an end to the era of self-inflicted wars and conflicts.”
“Africa
must turn its begging bowls into baskets of prosperity and opportunity”
“It is the supreme task of this generation to give hope to the
hopeless, strength to the weak and protection to the defenceless.” “You
have trusted me with your mandate, and I will never, never let you
down.” “We must develop a democratic culture in which the will of the
people will be treated as sacred and be immune to subversion by
anti-democratic elements.”
“As we strive to advance our
democratic development, there will be times when our will shall be
tested, our patience provoked and our belief questioned.” “The beauty of
democracy is that its practice is never final and always has room for
improvement no matter how old a democratic society may be. Where we
falter we must not fall. When we are weak, we must not surrender.” “Our
first responsibility as citizens is to use the ballot.” “We are
gradually reducing the footprints of government in business activities
through privatisation, liberalisation and deregulation based on our
recognition that the private sector should be the engine of growth in
our economy.”
