You're right! IBB officially declared his intention to run for the Presidency of our great nation, Nigeria on Wednesday 15th September 2010 by 11am at the Eagle Square Abuja but the declaration speech I am yet to find also. I'll also search for it and post here as soon as available.

Gentlemen of the Press

My Dear and Fellow Compatriots.

I am very pleased to welcome you to this event and I am grateful to you all who have honoured my invitation. Looking around the Eagle Square Abuja today and seeing the large turn-out of fellow citizens from all works of life and various zones of our country and friends of Nigeria, I am truly humbled. More importantly, the turn-out today reaffirms my belief and faith in the unity of our country and the greatness that lies before all of us as Nigerians. This gathering today which cuts across the divides of ethnicity, creed, generation, gender and status is a reaffirmation of our faith and determination to build a great Nigerian nation, a nation dreamt of by our founding fathers, a nation that meets the yearnings and aspirations of Nigerians, and a nation that is a leader in Africa and the world.
