Democracy Day: Nothing to Celebrate, Say Buhari, Atiku

As Nigeria marks ten years of democracy, former head of state, General Muhammadu Buhari, former vice president, Atiku Abubakar and former presidential candidate and secretary to the government of the federation, Chief Olu Falae, yesterday said that there was nothing to celebrate.They said instead of celebrating, Nigerians should join hands with promoters of the proposed mega party to mark what it called the First Electoral Reform Day. Speaking during the ceremony in Abuja, General Buhari openly declared support for the formation of the mega party to checkmate the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) during the 2011 elections.There is nothing to celebrate as we mark ten years of democracy in Nigeria. What we are celebrating today is the Electoral Reform Day and not the Democracy Day.?Every Nigerian should stand up to be counted as a supporter of the formation of a mega party, Buhari said.

Buhari, Atiku etc are near the top of the list when it comes to Nigeria's problems
