Presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has accused his opponent in the 2019 presidential election, Atiku Abubakar, of planning a return to power to allegedly create a paradise for thieves who'll loot the country blind.
While addressing the public at a summit, "African Leadership In The Millenium", a part of Felabration 2018, in Lagos State on Monday, October 15, 2018, Sowore said a victory for Atiku, a former vice president, or incumbent president, Muhammadu Buhari, will further stall the nation's progress.

He said, "The last government is always better than the next. In fact, if you ask me which is the worst government, it hasn't come yet.


"It's coming next year if we vote Buhari or Atiku. It'll be the worst government we'll have because both of them have unfinished business with Nigeria.

"Atiku was not happy that he didn't steal enough when he was with Obasanjo. Maybe he didn't get enough licenses for his universities, or maybe he didn't get enough oil blocs for himself or probably didn't marry enough wives.

"So, when they return, they're coming with vengeance; vengeance on our resources and our people.

"Atiku is coming back to create a paradise for thieves and you can see the people who are excited about them.

"They're either people who stole, who didn't steal enough last time, or people who are aspiring to become thieves, including Donald Duke.

"Same thing with Buhari. If Buhari returns next year, he'll take away all forms of pretence about human rights, about his support for Islamic extremism, about his respect for your farms. He'll take it all because at that time, he'll have nothing at stake."

We need revolution in 2019 - Sowore
Sowore also said Nigerians cannot hope to simply have power voluntarily transfered from one generation to another and must fight for it through a deliberate revolution.

He pointed out that the system is rigged to keep the old establishment in power and that Nigerians must resist it so as to actualise the country of their dreams and not the one of their ineffective leaders.

He said, "The solution is a revolution. We're not going anywhere without adding the revolutionary fervour to this coming election.

"Anyone who's still under the illusion that these old baggers, as we call them, will hand over power voluntarily to us, we're deceiving ourselves.

"Anyone under the illusion that the plastic cards that we refer to as permanent voter's card (PVC) will guarantee you a transfers of power from one generation to another, you're wasting your time.

"Of course a few of you might vote, but your votes will not count because it's been designed to fail from the beginning."

The 2019 presidential election, scheduled for February 16, 2019, is expected to be keenly-contested between Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Atiku of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) who served as vice president between 1999 and 2007 and lost in the 2007 presidential election.

Don't worry brother. Only enemy of the country are supporting Atiku, they will start shouting Biafra after defeat in 2019 election.

Omoyele Sowore should come and tell us who he is working for?. He should stop all this drama in the name of campaign and criticism

Every citizen of this country is entitled to vote and be voted for. You don't expect everyone to follow the same ideology you had because of politics. Many Nigerians are tired of this government

buhari stole N20 billion from PTF yet nobody is talking about that, all we keep hearing is atiku is a thief.


atiku invested his money and as such is a proud employer of thousands of nigeria. what about buhari??

IamAtikulate:
We would still vote for him.

Speak of yourself

Bholutife18:
Sowore! You better tread lightly!

Don't hate Atiku.

He has a right to hate whoever he wants as do you. If we weren't pawns in the grand Fulani scheme, we'd all vote Sowore.

Earthbound:

I'd have prefered Sowore as well but the fact that you cant make it shouldn't push you to hating who can.

I totally agree with you but whatever, opinion or ideology of anyone must be for progress of the country. Some ignorant are calling the country a zoo and now they want to determine who rule the zoo.

Yea I got your point. But you should understand that these persons feel marginalized and neglected. Certain things are not sited in their domain because certain region or state will loose. The government of the day ought to apply wisdom and diplomacy when handling issues. This is what this government lacked compare to the previous government. I want a better Nigeria same with the freedom fighters from those regions. If you ask them whether they want to exit out of Nigeria, many would say no.

N.a. you sabi.






To think you havnt said a world about gandujedollar speaks volume

lalasticlala

.

Me I go still vote for Chief Abubarka Atiku

He is actually right about them
Atikus Presidency is going to be full scale looting.Most PDP members are very broke at the moment
Hmmmmm Buharis second term is going to be full scale autocratic government,he is going to lock half of Nigerians up and isolate people from other tribes
Conclusion... We don’t need these useless guys but we don’t have choice so we much choose one
I’ll vote BUHARI since I am not a thief

God bless you and generations yet unborn. Wisdom is in you. Keep speaking wisdom.

This is my point for very long time. Buhari will not be president forever, you might not like his style of governance but that does not make you hate the only country you have. Many American hate Trump by they don't curse America. Highest period for any president is 8 Years.

I have no issues with sowore but I think he talks more than he thinks..
He has this "I no go gree" attitude of oshomole..
That's not what it takes to rule my dear.

Besides I think it's appropriate for him to rule his state as a governor first so we'd asses his capability..

Simply put!
I don't know why Igbos just like anything that will definitely end up failing.
Fellow betters, before you give any team straight win, ask an ipob. If he says they will win, give them loose.
Sense wee not kee me

Sowore?

I like this guy

That is your own problem..... but for me, my family, my community and my Local government we are OBIdiently and seriously ATIKUlating for PDP come 2019!!!

Wee u keep quiet
You'll be worst than Buhari,always ranting blames

Atiku is coming back to create a paradise for thieves and you can see the people who are excited about them.

I slightly concur but still anyone is better than Buhari

That is the simple truth. The only reason why nigerians will want to vote for atiku is because they erroneously think voting for any other candidate will increase buhari's chances of winning. that is how desperate this evil government has made nigerians just like how the extremely corrupt jonathan government made many nigerians desperate during the 2015 elections. Desperation always leads to rash decisions and costly irredemable mistakes. A great many Nigerians have been so exploited by these politicians and military general's that their minds have been conditioned to believe they don't have a choice. And somehow hoping for a miracle(miracle of Atiku changing and dropping his corrupt habits overnight to become the Jerry rawlings of nigeria*I laugh in swahili*). I am sorry but buhari has introduced a new low and proven to them that you can do whatever damn thing you like as well, even in a democratic Nigeria and nothing whatsoever can happen. They used to thread softly before but now prepare yourselves for the sh*it storm coming in Atiku's government if he wins. i will still be here to read rants and impotent curses maybe then nigerians will stop atikulating but the mumu syndrome in them will make them to maybe start sarakitulating or tambuwalating.
For me i'll vote sowore and take my chances rather than contribute to making this election a two horse race of who is the lesser of two evils.
