President Muhammadu Buhari
on Sunday inaugurated campaign manual for his re-election in 2019 with a call
on politicians to be peaceful and decent in their campaigns and avoid any act
capable of setting the nation ablaze.
Speaking at the launch of
the Campaign Manual/Next Level Document at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential
Villa, Abuja, the president said the call had become imperative in view of the
commencement of campaigns by political parties across the country.
“I’m not unmindful that the
National Assembly and the Presidential campaign starts today, I will employ
candidates to go about the campaigns peacefully and decently.
“We have no other country,
let us not set it ablaze because of politics,’’ he said.
He observed that the next
four years would be quite significant as the country was faced with a choice to
keep building a new Nigeria- making a break from its tainted past which favored
an opportunistic few.
The president said:
“We are committed to
deepening the work we started this first time such that the nation’s assets and
resources continue to be organised and utilized to do good for the majority of
our people.
“Our choices will shape us
– our economic security and our future prosperity.
According to him, Nigeria,
more than ever before, needs a stable and people-focused government to move the
agenda for the country forward.
