Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State, yesterday, adopted President Muhammadu Buhari as their candidate for the 2019 general elections.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, said this in a statement.

He said the party leaders also expressed their support for Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje as their sole governorship candidate for 2019.

He however noted that Buhari neither said he accepted nor declined the endorsement in his speech even after the party leaders had promised to procure the nomination forms for him and threatened to sue if he declined the said endorsement.

Shehu said President Buhari only smiled and went on to underscore the need for unity in the party and among the diverse people of Nigeria.

The APC stakeholders meeting, held on the sidelines of the president’s state visit to Kano, was attended by Governor Ganduje, his deputy, Professor Hafizu Abubakar, the state chairman and the members of the state and national executive committees of the party from Kano State.

Also in attendance were two of the state’s senators; members of the House of Representatives from the state; the speaker and 34 of the 40 members of the State House of Assembly and the 44 party chairmen, their deputies and local government area secretaries of the party.

Others were Governor Muhammed Badaru Abubakar of Jigawa State and other leaders of the party in the state.

The State Chairman of the APC, Alhaji Inuwa Abbas, hinged their endorsement of the president on his achievements in the last two years especially in the fields of security, the war against corruption and the restructuring of the economy.

“Security is important for everyone, not just for Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states. It is even more so for us as a commercial and industrial state. We are convinced that you are best for these times when the country has begun to muster energy and resources to develop agriculture, infrastructure and empower the younger citizens,” Abbas said.

Speaking on a humorous note, Governor Ganduje said the party was prepared to drag the president to court to force his acceptance of the second term ticket.

In his response, President Buhari said he understood the clamour by the ordinary people on the streets who raised four fingers on each hand, “meaning four-plus-four”.

He, however, stressed the need to sanitize party politics by ridding it of vote buying and violence.

“What I saw in the elections in Kogi, Bayelsa and Rivers; the use of money and those headless bodies really upset me. I don’t wish to see that anywhere. I would not have won if money and killing was the modus of operation. That is my view of politics,” Buhari said.

And some jokers still think Atiku will get votes from the north.

The reality that will hit them is still jogging 400 meters.

He has done absolutely nothing in his first 2 years (except defy court order and engage in illegal military operations everywhere), and without even seeing how far with the remaining 2 years of his terrible tenure, the same Niggers have already adopted him for 2019
