Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

Otunba Gbenga Daniel, a former governor of Ogun State, has said faced with the two options of President Muhammadu Buhari and former Vice President , Atiku Abubakar, former president Olusegun Obasanjo will choose Atiku as his preferred candidate for the 2019 presidential election.
Reacting to a claim that Obasanjo had vowed that Atiku will not become in his lifetime at Press conference in Lagos, Daniel, who is the Director-General of the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, said from recent happenings in the country, Obasanjo may have seen Atiku from a new perspective, based on the failures of the Buhari administration.
Daniel who said he is optimistic that Atiku will become the next president also projected the former Vice President’s support for restructuring and his business background as among other reasons why he would make a better president of Nigeria in 2019.

He said: “When people take positions, they take them based on the information that is available to them. And as this progresses, sometimes you now discover new things, you face new realities, I think that a number of people have been quite unhappy with the progression that has taken place.
“People are facing a new reality, I won’t be surprised if Olusegun Obasanjo is starting to change his position. It does appear that if we are not careful, we will continue to retrogress in the quality of people that occupy political position.

“I guess and I hope I am correct, President Obasanjo has seen it that maybe he has other information. And in any case when you are faced with a situation you have to choose one of two evils.
“I am aware that President Obasanjo said that he doesn’t think that Buhari will make a good president but at the last minute something happened, maybe he got better information he then changed his mind and if he has changed his mind on that occasion, I think he can also change his mind.”
Projecting the potentials of the Atiku candidacy, he said that a formidable candidate like the former vice-president was needed to divide the 12 million votes that had historically been won by President Buhari.
He said: “Apart from this, politics and of course you will also know that he is speaking the language of the Southwest which is restructuring; that is what the Southwest has been clamouring for decades. Of course, he is speaking the language of the people from the Southeast and South-South which is talking about resource control.
“These are things that are very important to our people. So if logical reasoning is anything to go by, I have a strong feeling that he is going to be the next president of Nigeria.”

Your opinion
And your opinion doesn't really matter

Lol



Face with choosing BTW two grd papa

Who really needs an Obasanjo who can't win his own local government in an election between Atiku and Buhari?

Clue to the answer:
The one who can't win his own state between both men. The man who couldn't get a single sitting governor of his party attend his declaration for the presidency.

Can obasanjo eat his vommit? let see how things unfold...Did we even need obj to choose for us? Can't we choose for ourselves? Time we tell.

Mumuni, governors align with their preferred aspirants even before primaries.

You should stop crying over matter that do not concern you. Zombie( Chairman South West)

Obasanjo may finally Atikulate, but how will pdp manage the crisis that will emanate after their presidential primary, how will they manage the egos of Kwankwaso, Atiku,Shekarau, Markafi and possibly Saraki, and even the governor of Gombe, too many aspirant for the presidential ticket, they know they can't get it from APC the main reason they defected, their primary can break the party if care is not taken.

I would rather keep silent not to engage myself in replying my daughter's age mate who lacks manner of approach and home training.
What is your problem about my opinions?

Obasanjo can't defeat tinubu here in the west, just like Atiku can not defeat Buhari in the whole north

You will see it happen.. life and direct

Atiku might be promising restructuring and resource control, but when he is voted in as president, he might come up with his northern agenda and implement restructuring and resource control in such a way as to favour the north. Remember that restructuring means different thing to different people/tribe. Every northerner has a northern agenda.

I share the same thought with you on this subject matter

Buhari over atiku anyday

If voting will count in 2019,i will choose Atiku a tnousand times over buhari because just like in 2015,a disappointment (Atiku) is a million times better than an out-of-World menace like (buhari)

..unfortunately,with the way this horrible buhari/APC are there is no way in hell the peopl's vote will count next year,especially now that defeat is staring APC in the face with the mass defections going on,and likely to get worse..
