The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) on Monday said it was going into the new year confident that President Muhammadu Buhari would be re-elected by appreciative Nigerians at the February poll.

But Kola Ologbondiyan, the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said – based on current developments in the country and the mood of Nigerians who were disenchanted with President Buhari – there was no way APC could win in 2019 except by rigging and banditry.

Speaking with Daily Independent, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, APC’s National Publicity Secretary, said Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the PDP, could not win the election because Nigerians would not want to go back to the past.

According to Issa-Onilu, the year 2019 holds a lot of promises as President Buhari would use it to consolidate on the foundations he had laid so far in the areas of his three cardinal programmes, which are revamping the economy, fighting corruption, and securing the nation from attacks.

He said: “Our expectation is very high in 2019, especially as regards the presidential election. We are confident that President Muhammadu Buhari and APC will emerge victorious.

“The people of Nigeria know that we cannot afford to go back to the past like we were under PDP. They know that with APC, the future is very bright. The signs are very encouraging.

“So, we see 2019 as a year to further consolidate on the gains of the last three and half years and, hopefully, by December 2019, we will have cause to thank God for what He has done for this country through President Muhammadu Buhari and the APC.”

On his part, Ologbondiyan expressed confidence that the PDP would return to power in 2019, maintaining that the general feelings among Nigerians was that President Buhari must be voted out in 2019.

He said: “The APC cannot win by a wider margin than they did in 2015 except they want to engage in banditry. Looking at what is happening in the country today and the resolve across party lines, there is no way any right thinking Nigerian will want this present government to continue for another four years.

“The general feeling among Nigerians is that President Buhari must be voted out of office. So, I don’t know how anyone will come out and say he will be re-elected by a wider margin. How that is possible still remains a mystery to me except they are confident that the elections will be massively rigged in their favour.

“Where will the votes come from? The goodwill Buhari enjoyed four years ago has vanished. Everybody who participated in bringing Buhari to power has abandoned him.

“Even former President Olusegun Obasanjo openly declared that the nation cannot afford to reinforce failure. So, where will the votes come from? It is self-delusion of grandeur and that is what the APC and the presidency are engaged in.”

lo

.

Watch out for next month presidential election I tell you it's going to be very interesting don't miss any part of it



Happy new year guyz

The good news that will follow if this terrorist eventually win this coming election, is that, those who voted him in the north will suffer the most.

.... Appreciative Nigerians indeed.... with all your inconclusive elections conducted so far........the already defined means of election Rigging for APC candidates....and the chief of Dundee united......we will stand against your plans this February....!

Buhari is a failure, and will always be a failure.

We don't want again, baba go to hell

A simple question:
How did a family who could not afford money to buy
nomination form for their patriarch suddenly became the owners of Keystone bank and Etisalat?
That you guy succeeded in blocking the senses .of your zombified zombies does not mean all of us are zombies. We who had retained our sanity and sense will, in an emphatic manner, send your dullard demigod back where you guys brought him from - Daura.
How many of you here unemployed or with unemployed relative got a job or has a relative who got a job since this mistake of a President took over? But they promised you 3 million jobs annually o. As useless as the APC and Buhari are, they claimed to have created 12 million farming jobs. Like seriously? What do they smoke in APC? You mean there are 12 million person who only started farming for the first from 2015? APC hardly think before they spew out nonsense.

Fire go burn Buhari

God is the greatest decider.The one that says no and it remains no and says yes and it remains yes.

Shared votes in the North

Atiku wins in South- South and South East

Shared votes in the South West

How then can Buhari win?

How is that going to happen with Herdsmen unleashing terror, boko haram reclaiming territories and the feeling of hopelessness amongst the populace.

North central for Atiku NE NW for Buhari...

Buhari and apc are really banking on rigging
else they wont have this boldness to talk about winning 2019

My own view*
Buhari takes NE, NW partially
Atiku takes SS, SE fully
SW will be divided
Atiku takes Middle belt

Final result for 2019 election= Atiku as president elect.

Like for Atiku
Share for failure/buhari.

Buhari has already won this.

Election is not about purported level of hardship, it is about who majority of the populace believe is a better option bw 2 candidates.
As many Nigerians are experiencing hardship, many Nigerians are also experiencing enjoyment.

It is those whom hunger & suffering has finished their brains that want to put a wanted criminal in charge of the treasury and institutions of the world's most populous black nation.

It's very clear for all to see

Are Hausa/Fulani the only inhabitant of the North?

Confident of rigging.Only in a country like Nigeria that a failed and woeful government of the APC kind will be confident of even presenting itself for election let alone winning.
