2019 Presidency: Northern Leaders Dump Buhari, React To Aisha’s Claim Of ‘two Pe by nwanyionitsha: 7:44pm On Dec 09, 2018

The Northern Elders Forum, NEF, have stated their position on its preferred presidential candidate ahead of the forthcoming 2019 election.

The Convener of the Northern Elders’ Forum (NEF), Professor Ango Abdullahi, in a statement signed by himself and issued on Saturday in Kaduna, said the northern leaders have dumped their support for Buhari.

According to Abdullahi, the Northern Elders arrived at the decision to dump Buhari for another northern presidential candidate because of his failure to fulfil the basic conditions they handed to him in 2015 when they rejected the then President, Goodluck Jonathan and elected him.

The NEF leader also accused the President of bringing strange elements into government, thereby adding no value to governance and “we are vindicated on this score because his wife, Aisha, has confirmed that this week”.

Wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, Aisha had on Tuesday said two powerful people are frustrating her husband’s effort in running the affairs of the country.

Aisha, however, failed to mention the names of the powerful persons.

The statement by the Northern elders reads: “Two of the conditions we gave Buhari upon his assumption of office were that he should take concrete steps to address the abject poverty and underdevelopment in the North and he has woefully failed to marginally address any of them.

“Assuming that things are working in the North or in Nigeria as a whole, we would have taken a different position but everyone can see that things are not working under this government. Perhaps, as a prelude to where this government has taken this country, Buhari wasted six months before being able to set up his cabinet.

“And when he eventually formed the cabinet, he brought in persons who had not added any value to governance and his wife has vindicated us on this.

“As things stand today, we in the NEF do not believe that Nigeria’s cause will be helped by Buhari’s re-election in 2019. That is why we have decided to pick one of the other presidential candidates from the North for next year’s contest.

“It would be futile for anyone to blame anybody for the decision of the NEF against Buhari because his own wife has openly alluded to our position that some persons, who do not have the interest of Nigeria at heart, are running the Buhari administration without adding real value to the governance of Nigeria”.

Abdullahi, who served as former President Obasanjo’s Special Adviser on Food Security, pointed out that Buhari was the architect of his own misfortune, having repeatedly rebuffed all entreaties by northern leaders to meet with him and address the issues raised against him.

“Apart from his poor performance to the dissatisfaction of those who made him President, Buhari has deliberately rebuffed all attempts by the Northern Elders Forum to meet with him and discuss issues pertaining to the region and Nigeria.

“This is the reason we meticulous screened over 13 persons from the Nnorth and finally picked four out of the large number and our choice has also been endorsed by leaders of Southern Nigeria including Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Afenifere and Middle Belt leaders.

“We believe that there is no need for us to be talking to Buhari again about what he needs since that will not change anything. We have moved and our votes will not be based on sentiment of tribe or religion but strictly on performance.”

A president whose leadership has impose more poverty, hunger, ecession, hate speech, dissapointment propaganda and deceit than any other.

A presidency that have conform in winch hunting of political opposition circle and shy away making it eextensive driven yet rant they have dealt with corruption my foot.

A President who have almost exchange her democratic tenet for a Authoritarian dictatorship.

A presidential with the worst or no tangible achievement to show for over 3years.

A president that have made more misconstrue and mischievous abragadabra statements of about his nation and it's inhabitants in the face of international community deserves to b voted out without any reasonable doubt.

Those two powerful people should be exposed and jailed because we didn't vote for them as our presidents. This is high level of kwaruptshon.

I ve said it before and i am still saying it again. A vote for Mr Buhari is a vote for the two undercover men manipulating him.

I cant vote for a man being controlled by unknown men.

Thank you Mrs Buhari for this exposure you have made.
