According to him, “the position of the CNPP on the matter was a collective decision and it was premised on the track record of Gen. Buhari whose exemplary leadership qualities stand him out as an incorruptible Nigerian.

“In fact, at this time of our development as a nation, we need a morally strong leader like Buhari to place this country on the pedestal of faster growth and development, hence our decision to queue behind his aspiration.”

Agan who said, the CNPP had already put modalities in place to ensure that the former Head of State, emerged victorious in the coming election, said the election of the retired general would be like a mass movement.

“The truth is that his election come 2015 would be some sort of a mass movement of all Nigerians who are craving for change in our country.

“Already, the subtle mobilization of market women, civil servants, artisans, religious groups and the political class has fully commenced and there is no doubt that Nigerians earnestly desire a change for the better.”

The CNPP who urged the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to ensure a level playing field for all aspirants in the coming elections cautioned that the will of Nigerians should be allowed to prevail at next year’s elections.
