Buhari’s presidency: Vibrant support and agonising regret. "To Nigerians who relied on my endorsement to support and vote for Buhari, I say I am deeply sorry"

Buhari’s presidency: Vibrant support and agonising regret 
About five years ago, my decision to endorse retired General Muhammadu Buhari given the constraints at the time, was based on the promise that he would make a great civilian President of Nigeria.

Nuhu Ribadu, Goodluck Jonathan and to some extent my friend Dele Momodu were all contenders.
