ONLINE 2nd term not for personal gains – Buhari

- Kamardeen Ismail

I am surprised to hear such a statement from the president, because nothing has been achieved so far. I am not confident that the second term will be any better. Anyway, I know that some people will still support him.

Jeffry Ezekiel Yes, this is the type of president Nigeria deserves. By God’s grace he will win again in 2019. Kolawole Abdulateef Kolawole

His first term has been a total disaster. The best thing he can do for the country is to go back home after his first tenure.

Amara Muoneke Indeed he needs a second term to complete what he has started.

Auwal Moga

I wish more people will indicate interest in the seat so that Nigerians can select the best person. Based on the performanc­e of the current administra­tion, I don’t think they deserve a second chance.

Abubakar Audu

What exactly has been achieved in this first term? Please this government should tell us its achievemen­ts.

Alhaji Muhammadu

The president should allow younger people to take over. He has tried but he should give way after his first term. I am confident that Nigeria will be better off without the current crop of leaders. Nelson Meyes

Wailers and haters can’t see his achievemen­ts because they have been brainwashe­d by looters.

Musa Abdullahi I really don’t understand this statement; what was the first term for? Francis Yusuf Zuhumla

President Muhammadu Buhari has played his part in the nation’s history. It is time for him to leave and allow another person to manage the country. We haven’t fared well in the past three years that he has been in power. But I read somewhere that President Buhari initially said he would run for only one term; what changed? Joe Kamkis I trust the president and that is why I am going to vote for him again in 2019. Lawan Tijjani Goni Atom As far as I am concerned this government has not achieved anything. Iniabipi Senibe

The president should not bother about a second term. He should go and rest.

Sunday Isokobo Instead of seeking another term, the president should use that time to rest and bond with his family. Ogbodo Jude

I totally agree with the president. He is indeed an honest man.

Iliyasu Lamido I am appealing to the president to forget about a second term. Hillary Emeka Alukwu

I am happy that he said it is not for personal gains. And since it is for us, Nigerians, I am using this opportunit­y to ask him to forget about a second term.
