Sokoto State Governor, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, wednesday stated that President Muhammadu Buhari is a man of integrity and impeccable character, but too old to steer the affairs of Nigeria.

Addressing the various associations, students and youths, who paid him solidarity visit in Sokoto, the state capital, the governor admitted that pressure is being mounted on him to declare for presidency.

He, however, debunked reports that he is one of the enemies of President Buhari.

“We love President Buhari and that was why we supported him in 2015 unconditionally, and while doing that, we are too sure that he will seek re-election after his first term, but when things are wrong we have to tell him.

“We still believe in his integrity, patriotism and courage but these are not enough for a leader.

“We all know that there is a vacuum in the government occasioned by his disposition probably because of his old age or health condition. That is why Nigerians are yearning for younger ones to lead this country,” he said.

The governor alleged that some cabals have hijacked the government and are now discharging the functions and responsibilities of the president.

According to him, the country needs somebody who will respect the rule of law and would not be selective in fighting corruption.

The governor admitted that pressure is being mounted on him to declare for presidency in 2019.

“I have been receiving support and encouragement from our leaders and people across the country, and even from abroad to contest for president, and this pressure is there.

“It is not my making but there’s quantum of pressure from everywhere because of leadership gap in the country. In the next few days, I will make my position public on the matter,” he added.

Buhari is aged and suffers from Alzheimer's related dementia..this condition limits his thinking and cognizance.

Can you employ a CEO with such condition to run your company? Then why let him run our country?

[/b]Is sane climes people like him are kept in elderly people's home where they're taken care of[b]

How old is Bennie Sanders? Though I don't like an old person like PMB as a president

But in Nigeria he is being pushed by some selfish individuals to keep contesting even though age is failing him and be barely even remembers anything..

How can such man be trusted with our collective destiny?

[/b]People like Tinubu who has wicked ambitions are supporting him not because they're convinced he is doing well but because they want the fastest route to the throne.. [b]

Your hate for this man is just too embarrassing. I am sure lots of your relatives are enjoying plenty of his great work in Lagos but you Sha want to keep hating. Chai!!!! Okoro people with hate..Tufiakwa

You people should go and tell Buhari that he must stand in for a debate this time around.. not in 2015 when he had to hide away..he must stand and tell us what his manifesto is and how he wants to achieve them.

please how old is Donald trump again?..people should stop flying this age crap..if you say he is not good and cannot govern well..say so.

“We are aware that the President is affected by serious challenges of health and is being held captive by a cabal that runs Nigeria for their personal interests.”

This kind of insult can only arise when an old power drunk but grossly incompetent man insists on ruling a nation of 180million people.

“I wish I became Head of State when I was a governor, just a few years as a young man. Now at 72, there is a limit to what I can do.”

Apart from age, he is very sck and that sickness is probably an outcome of old age. Have you heard of Trump running to hospitals in other countries and taking medical vacations almost every quarter?

Naturally, age combined with illness will render anyone inefficient and unable to render good service or govern. Sense of judgment is impaired, decisions are in the hands of people who were not voted by Nigerians.

Like it or not, he's old and sick and clearly cannot govern well. Nigeria deserves better.
