From an article Adam Nossiter published 1 April 2015 by The New York Times under the headline:
Nigerian President-Elect Muhammadu Buhari Sets Out His Agenda
Extracts
KANO, Nigeria — Nigeria’s president-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, did not smile while making his acceptance speech on Wednesday — understandably, as terrorism and corruption were his main talking points.
A day after piling up substantial vote totals against the incumbent president, Mr. Buhari, a former general who once rose to power in a military coup, further consolidated something extraordinary for Nigeria: the peaceful passing of power from one political party to another through the ballot box.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
