APC Will Run A Transparent Government Where Office Holders Will Be Accountable To People- Osinbanjo

APC will run a transparent Government that will be accountable to people and Gen. Muhammadu Buhari would lead the military to the North East if voted into power on February 14, Osinbajo  has said. Osinbajo, Buhari’s running mate, disclosed this yesterday, Monday, 26^th of January, 2015 while addressing youths at a town hall meeting held under the aegis of Act Now Professionals in Abuja.  

Osinbajo says GMB will lead by example by visiting the places insurgents are terrorizing and not looking from the rear. He also disclosed how the APC-led government would rescue the over 200 female students of Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, seized since April 14 2014. Continue below…

“The first priority is security and to question what has gone wrong in the military. Then, funding the military adequately and ensuring that the Commander-In-Chief leads from the front. But when he was Commander-In-Chief, Buhari led from the front as a soldier. You cannot lead from the rear. You cannot fail to go to where the insurgency is taking place and that is what Buhari has been saying.

“I think that the major problem with the question of security is again that it was not prioritised by this government. It was not taken seriously enough from the beginning. When you have a situation, you do not politicise the insurgency like that. You do not point to the opposition and say it is the opposition that is sponsoring it until General Buhari almost lost his life when Boko Haram attacked him.

“We must start by understanding that there is a war going on in that part of the country and what the government need to do is to get the nation behind it, not pointing accusing fingers at wrong places.

“We need to look at the whole question of funding and equipping the military. The military at the moment is not equipped. I worked with Femi Falana on the mutiny of some solders and what is the complaint of those soldiers who were charged with mutiny? Their complaint is that they were not given equipment and they wanted them to go to battle. So, how do you say that? How does anybody think that you can fight the insurgents without ammunitions?”, he said.

According to him, the APC will run a transparent government where public officials would be accountable to the people
