President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday said his decision to seek re-election in 2019 was based on the clamour by Nigerians.

According to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President said this at a closed-door meeting of the National Executive Council of the ruling All Progressives Congress, held at the party’s headquarters in Abuja.

The statement read, “President Muhammadu Monday in Abuja declared his intention to seek re-election in 2019.

“President Buhari made the declaration at a closed-door meeting of the National Executive Council of the All Progressives Congress.

“The President said he was responding to the clamour by Nigerians to re-contest in 2019, adding that he wanted to give NEC the honour of notifying them first.

“Shortly before making the declaration, the President presented a speech on the report submitted by the APC National Executive Technical Committee.”

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, Buhari had earlier presented a speech on the report submitted by the APC National Executive Technical Committee, and specifically thanked members of the committee for carrying out its assignment on time.

“It shows a great sense of commitment to the ideals of our party with a view to consolidating and positioning the party to continue delivering good governance in the overall interest of Nigerians.

“With the present state of the party and based on the report submitted by the Technical Committee, it is important to focus on how to move the party forward by avoiding actions detrimental to the interest of the party.

“Considering that politics is a game of numbers, we must not be a house divided against itself and must try to note, appreciate and accommodate our differences as far as the law permits.

“Upon my review of the Report, my position is to ensure that the party tows the path of unity, legality and cohesion and not that of division,’’ NAN quoted Buhari as saying.

When, where, how...?

Is it Benue, Taraba, Nassarawa, Kaduna, Ebonyi, Kogi people that are clamouring...or the Ekiti people? Or SE and SS states that are clamouring.

Is it the farmers in Ondo, Edo Ogun that are killing themsleves for you?

Please how?

see this useless liar. deceiving useful idiots

Indeed this man is a Jonathan in agbada. His focus has been on the second term from day one. He only executed short term projects befitting of LGs. Free food, N-power. Just like jonathan built almajiri schools, fed unis.

Don't be deceived with the arranged crowd and public holiday on your visits..

It is your family and your servant Tinubu who clamoured for your second term, not hungry Nigerians like me.U a bad news.

At least lie a believeable lie na. Who clamoured for your second coming?

We're still struggling to survive your first coming.

The Jesus of our time. I trust the redeemed church will give him a block vote.

U may b right oo, but let it be on record dat I igba nke mbu na abua na ato is not among d nigerians who clamoured for dis rubbish. U can quote me if u clamoured for dis efulefu but I won't dignify u with a response as I won't support his move in any way.
