Amid rumours of plots by some political heavyweights across party lines to float a new mega party that will challenge President Muhammadu Buhari’s All Progressives Congress, APC, in 2019, former president, Olusegun Obasanjo, has allegedly given a stringent condition to support the proposed mega party. While he was said not to be averse to the emergence of a new formidable opposition party, Obasanjo, according to ThisDay, gave a condition that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who was his deputy between 1999 to 2007, should not by any means whatsoever become such party’s presidential candidate in the 2019 elections. It is been speculated that the opposition party, still in the works, enjoys the tacit support of some members of the Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, that currently controls 11 states in the country, and is also promoted by APC bigwigs like: Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and Atiku Abubakar. Sources close to the ex-president informed the newspaper that when proponents of the new party approached Obasanjo to lend his support to the move, he told them that he was prepared to back it on the condition that Atiku will not be picked as the presidential candidate of the party. “He (Obasanjo) addressed the group that met with him, informing them that he had made too many mistakes in his life and for the nation, including the blanket support he claimed to have granted the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Muhammadu Buhari, and therefore was not prepared to make any more mistakes,” said a source conversant with the outcome of the meeting with Obasanjo. The former president reportedly continued that although he was quick to support the APC, however, he was never in a hurry to support Buhari’s bid to become president in 2015 because he had reservations about his capacity to lead the country, adding that because the APC to which he had declared his support had also settled for Buhari, he had no option than to tag along. He informed his guests that considering the prevalent state of the nation and political developments, it would be foolhardy of him to rush into taking yet another critical decision, especially on the presidency of the country. It was for this reason he was said to have reluctantly supported the idea of the mega party, but added that he would only identify with it if his erstwhile deputy does not emerge the presidential candidate of the party. Obasanjo was said to have pointed out that Buhari’s apparent unimpressive stewardship to date had lent credence to his initial hesitation to support him and that having worked with Atiku, he could tell the kind of presidency he would run. He reportedly made it clear to the proponents of the mega party that their presidential candidate could be anybody with the minimum requisite qualifications and experience, but certainly not the former vice president.
