President-elect General Muhammudu Buhari has revealed that US President Barrack Obama was relieved that he won the election.
The former military ruler stated this during the visit of Northern leaders led by Ambassador Maitama Sule over the weeked.
Mr. Buhari said during a recent telephone conversation with the US President, he could feel the relief in the voice of Obama which further encouraged him.
“One of the reliefs I got was the telephone call from the President of the United States. I could feel the relief in his voice because Americans are people of conscience. Forget about religion, colour and development.
“They are people of conscience because they have reached a stage where they have stabilised their society and they are relatively secured both materially, physically and otherwise.
“They know we are in danger. Everybody was saying that Nigeria is going to the dogs in 2015, but even beyond our expectations, we have managed to go through and we thank technology for the permanent voter cards, PVCs, and card readers because the whole exercise of writing results, announcing them and asking losers to go to court does not make any difference. Those who defended the PVCs and card readers made this change possible.”
