Why former military officers are endorsing Buhari, Marwa explains
A former military administrator of Lagos State, Retired Brigadier-General Buba Marwa, has described President Muhammadu Buhari has a man of integrity.
Marwa, who governed Nigeria’s commercial capital between 1996 and 1999, said this when he appeared as a guest on Channels Tv’s programme, Sunday Politics.
Marwa noted that Buhari’s honesty was the sole reason a group of retired Army Generals, Admirals, Marshals and former Military Governors/Administrators are endorsing him as their candidate in the February 16 presidential election.
“The endorsements on President Buhari by all and sundry, including military officers (rtd), most of who are not politicians is based on the fact that we all want good governance.
“He (President Buhari) is incorruptible, upright, he has integrity, he’s honest, there isn’t even a whiff of scandal around his name,” Marwa said.
The former administrator noted that the best kind of leader is “the leader who leads by example. A leader who says do as I do and not do as I say”.
