“I like President Muhamadu Buhari’s speech. He was very kind to former President Jonathan by acknowledging the role he played in keeping Nigeria one and united. His avowed blueprint when implemented will definitely spell a positive Change for this country. His speech  was very states manly. Very reassuring to the nation.”

The Director- General, Nigeria Governors’ Forum, NGF, Asishana Okauru

“ the speech is very encouraging. It has a lot of accommodation in it between the federal government and the states in moving the country forward and the NGF will be ready to participate fully. “

Festus Okoye: Executive Director, Human Rights Monitor and member of the 2014 National Conference:

“The  speech lifted the spirit of despair and fatalistic  resignation  that enveloped Nigeria in the last few years. It was both  inspirational  and uplifting. He clearly mapped out his navigational chart and direction.  His pledge to be for all and for none is a clear indication that he will run  a just and fair administration.”

The Presidential candidate of Hope Democratic Party, HDP.

The immediate past AGF, Mohammed Adoke, SAN, sabotaged the trial of some members of the the “cabal” behind the oil subsidy scam, which occasioned untold hardship on Nigerians within the past two months.

“Our position remains that the Attorney General of the Federation and other such Ministers, and the EFCC, who played a major role in the connivance and encouraging the fuel subsidy scam, should be probed to recover trillions of naira belonging to Nigerians now in their possession.

“We demand that the government of Buhari must do this to earn the respect and confidence of Nigerians and the international community and to assuage the embarrassment the government officials have caused the entire nation and the suffering people of Nigeria.”
