The APC presidential candidate said that this is a critical time in the history of Nigeria as the next election will determine the future of Nigeria.
He urged Nigerians to vote out the PDP .so as to enable the APC government to commence the restoration of the nation’s socio-economic super structures that have been destroyed by the corrupt PDP cabal.
Buhari added that corruption and insecurity were the major problems shaking the fabric of the nation, noting that if he becomes the president of the country, an emergency zero-tolerance will be declared on corruption and insecurity.
The APC Presidential candidate further asserted that the PDP has completely ruined the country for the past 16 years, describing PDP as a complete failure having put the nation into economic, social and political quagmire.
While calling on Nigerians to take part in the polls, Buhari said: “The Igbo nation has been absolutely neglected for the past 16 years by the PDP. We must not allow PDP to rule this country for 20 years. If we do that, it will be very disastrous for the country. We are here to restore this nation. So, all of us must collectively vote PDP out of government in this election.

According to him, the Ibos have been supporting past Presidents that have ruled the country, but lamented that nobody has ever supported them in their quest of becoming the president of the country.
Former Governor of Anambra State, Dr. Ogbonaya Oji, who also spoke at the occasion, cautioned Nigerian to make the rights decision and vote out PDP from Government, noting that this election will determine if Nigerians needed change or not.
