The first stage or chapter or component in supporting Candidate Buhari was buying into his manifesto, followed by campaigning for him with varying degrees of intensity and commitment.
I have confessed on these pages to have supported and campaigned for Buhari but with limited commitment and a lot of misgivings. Finally I voted for him. We were offered no real choices. The arguments that I used were not necessarily original, having been shared by many others in the media.
Now we are in the mode of holding our leaders and President accountable. As an Igbo, what exactly does Buhari want of me again in the form of support? To lower my expectations, defer my demands, pull my punches or perhaps desist from further criticizing him? That would be most unrealistic. Tell me something else.
