With just one year and seven months into the four years term of the administration of president Muhammdu Buhari which will terminate in 2019, presidency has given sure indication that the president would seek a second term in office.

It also vehemently dismissed comments that it would be a lonely walk for the president, a development expected to serve as a punishment for perceived bad governance.
The refutation was a sharp reply to a statement credited a former member of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, Alhaji Buba Galadima that the people of Nigeria would abandon Buhari should he choose to seek re-election.

In a strong worded statement last night, the presidency through the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu stated that the “suggestions that the masses will desert President Buhari in 2019 as unfounded and utterly ridiculous”.

Shehu asserted that “ordinary Nigerians are the backbone of his mandate and the only reason he ran for the office is to protect them against the rapacious merchants of corruption, who have held Nigeria back for decades”, saying that ” Galadima’s calculation and prediction is utterly confused and misleading.”

According to the presidential spokesman “the masses are solidly behind Buhari because he is not stealing their money and their future. President’s enormous goodwill remains ever strong because the people are convinced the President is acting in their best interest, despite the temporary unintended consequences of reforms.”

Suggesting vendetta and strong animosity agent the person and the government of Buhari, Shehu who carpeted Galadinma recalled that an age-long face-off between both Arewa leaders in their CPC days.

He revealed that it was the reason why Buhari discarded the likes of Galadinma in the 2015 elections he ran and won, urging Galadinma to retire to his constituency and stand an election if he still enjoyed the goodwill of his people.

“President Muhammadu Buhari is far from isolation. He enjoys a very strategic relationship with ordinary Nigerians. This relationship is as solid as the proverbial rock. If Buba Galadima thinks that because he has no role and no job in this government that means president is isolated, he is putting himself up to ridicule.

“Galadima cannot speak for the masses as far as their steadfast loyalty to Buhari is concerned. While acknowledging that Galadima was entitled to advance his own political agenda, Malam Garba said Galadima didn’t have the right to decide for ordinary voters.

“Buba Galadima’s disagreement with President Buhari was based on principle. He explained that President Buhari is committed to level playing field and would not want anyone to link his name to injustice.

“Galadima’s disagreement with Buhari started in 2011 when a group within the party, orchestrated an organizational mess by which the CPC embarked on the imposition and substitution of candidates for cash payments at the expense of those duly and democratically elected.

“Muhammadu Buhari was embarrassed by the incidents and complaints about the imposition and substitution of candidates, adding that he, as a democrat, would not suppress the will of the people to please selfish interests.

“Consequently he dispensed with the service, such as they are, of Buba Galadima; ran and won the 2015 Elections without them. Let Buba Galadima go to his constituency, stand for election and see what will happen to him”, Shehu stressed.

@bolded

Iam here to watch wailers self service on this,while zombies droll with infectous spittles





spreads newspaper**

God will save us from buhari.

Shehu Garba has swallowed the bait. It's this kind of press release that killed Reuben Abati and the GEJ presidency. The press release reeks of obscene arrogance, personal and undignifying of the presidency

OK, let me ask the masses..

Click *Like if you want Buhari to contest/win in 2019. .


*Share if you prefer somebody else.. Like me

He better run to Daura to cater for his cattles.
Na so so badluck dey follow the man since may 2015.

I hope his fellow cattle herder have their voters card

2019 is still 3 years away. Too early to speculate

To win an election in Nigeria is very easy. GEJ refused to use the power he has to win the election. Thanks to PMB he is more than ready to go all the way to win the election. Just two ways to win the election
First arrest and prosecute with strong corruption allegation on all opposition party members the election is done and dusted

For all those waiting for 2019 to vote Buhari out, dream on

Democracy ended with GEJ

Ok o. Goodluck Baba Buhari.

But at least, focus on delivering the 'Chanji' you promised Nigerians before 2019.

Tomorrow is pregnant, we don't know the Child it'll give birth to.

Don't deceive that old man oooo,una want make hin die there

Supported. Let him complete his 8 years and bring to an end all his over bloated and empty mystic once and for all.
