I cried in public because of hardship in Nigeria – Buhari

The national leader of Congress for Progressive Change and former military head of state, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) has explained why he wept in public during his campaign in 2011.

According to the Kastina-born politician, it is painful that Nigerians are suffering despite the enormous wealth the country is blessed with.

Buhari who stated this in a radio interview in Kano yesterday, blamed the bad leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party,PDP, on the country’s numerous woes.


 
“I joined politics on two grounds: first was, after I was out of prison, people asked me to join politics, perhaps they saw the potential in me; the second was, the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the changes it brought about. That compelled me to join politics.

The retired General described as embarrassing the outcome of the recent election in the Nigeria Governors’ Forum ,NGF, which is currently tearing the forum apart.
