The Story of the People's General!



 
Muhammad Buhari was born into a polygamous home with over 20 siblings. The general had his military training in the
united kingdom and the united states. His advent into Nigeria politics Started as a military head of state when he took power through a bloodless coup from the Corrupt Government of Shehu shagari. It was at this time, he carried out a feat that had never been done before...........He penetrated and undermined united kingdom's security by the secret extradition of Umaru Dikko, a corrupt minister during Shehu shagari's regime. This led to severing of NIGERIA-UK relation and bad blood between , Late Margret thatcher and the general..He was later ousted later by Gen Muhammad Buhari. Also, it must be Noted that Buhari took over from the Executive Government of Shehu shagari while the Economy was in a serious decline, And once again, his victory at this time is also at a time, when Nigeria's economy is at it's worse. Now General is on a redeeming Mission! Back to the story, Gen Muhammad Buhari later in 2003 contested for Nigeria's presidency against Olusegun Obasanjo, but he lost. IN 2007, he contested against Late Umaru Musa yara'dua and he lost, an election some analyst believed was largely characterized by rigging. IN 2011, he contested against Good luck Ebele Jonathan but lost and the general in 2011 vowed, with tears  never to contest again for the presidency but...........
Later he showed sign of still having interest in contesting and was nominated under the coalition of parties that formed the APC. During the election, the General was subjected to a lot Victimization and comments about his past but he maintained his calm.
The story of the General's victory today is  a lesson that teaches us that "it is not about far, but how well" and also " fortune favor only those who dare to seek it and Fortune has finally has smiled on the general.
