Buhari’ll deliver dividends of democracy
By BALA ABUBAKAR

AN ANPP stalwart, Alhaji Sani Abdullahi Dambatta has described the ANPP presidential flag bearer, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) as the only one to deliver the goods of democracy in the country, in view of his honesty, good governance and accountability.
Speaking to Daily Triumph in Kano in an exclusive interview, Alhaji Sani Dambatta appealed to the Nigerian people to support General Buhari in the 2007 polls.
The ANPP stalwart further stated that, Nigerians know that General Muhammadu Buhari is the only person that can deliver the nation, considering what he had achieved when he served the country on various capacities.
He enjoined Nigerians to team up themselves and ensure that, General Muhammadu Buhari wins the general elections in 2007 for the nation to forge ahead.
Alhaji Abdullahi Dambatta, reminded Nigerians, that job creation, security, developmental programmes, accountability and equity would be General Buhari’s priority, if elected in office in 2007 and appealed to the people to rally round him to succeed.
The ANPP supporter however spoke on the legacies of General Muhammadu Buhari when he served the nation as minister of petroleum, governor of Borno state, head of state and the chairman of “Petroleum Trust Fund” where he urged Nigerians to judge for themselves some of these legacies left by General Muhammadu Buhari.
Alhaji Dambatta lamented that General Buhari is the most credible candidate and most popular politician in the country who has contributed immensely to the growth of democracy in Nigeria.
According to him, General Buhari started his political carrier from the ANPP and played a great role in moving the party ahead and he had never been found wanting in any assignment given to him.
Alhaji Sani Abdullahi Dambatta also dismissed the insinuation that the elite were against Buhari’s candidature, noting that only corrupt officials were afraid of his winning the presidential race.
Dambatta expressed confidence in INEC’s ability to conduct free and fair elections in April and urged the politicians to cooperate with the commission to enable it discharge its duties creditably.
