Oby Ezekwesili, the presidential candidate of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN), has named Ganiyu Galadima as her running mate for the 2019 elections.

She revealed this while speaking at Kwara Hotel, Ilorin, Kwara state on Wednesday, stating that he was the kind of grassroot politician she needs to lift 80 million people out of poverty.

Galadima, who is the national chairman of the ACPN, contested the 2015 presidential election, where he garnered 40,311 votes to clinch the fourth position.

He was only behind the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Muhammadu Buhari; Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Goodluck Jonathan; and Adebayo Ayeni of the African Peoples Alliance.

Speaking about her choice of a grassroot politician, Ezekwesili said Galadima will teach her to be a consummate politician.

“I am very delighted that my vice-presidential candidate, my colleague, the one that will embark on this very important fight for Naija, are you ready to fight for Naija?

“That I have a rugged grassroot fighter as the person who will supplement the things that I know. He will teach me how to be a consummate politician.

“Alhaji Abdulganiyu Galadima is definitely known for the work he has done at the grassroot level. As someone who started a strong career in local government, he is the kind of person I need, for us to lift 80 million people out of poverty.

“If we need competence, we can buy it; if we need capacity, we can buy it, but there is one thing we cannot buy, and that is character. For me, this gentleman represents that character.”

She said Galadima has been in politics for so long but has refused to be assimilated into the politics of failure, maintaining his character in politics.

This woman is a great woman and a role model....But truely speaking and my thoughts, I don't think the timing is right for her....Nigeria is so complex right now for her to handle right now....

As the year comes to an ends, some nairalanders are still wondering why they have not met their dream and new year resolution for 2018. Here is why and what you need to do to quickly over turn your thoughts and make yourself and family happy....

I will send this to you daily...

They just want to be in the news. Woman to lead Nigeria no be today.

Chukwudi, you sure say dis una sister no be man so?

Doesn’t matter who she picks..cos she has no hopes of winning, in fact she’s not even in the conversation. That said, she’s a great woman tho.

Only if people with good intentions like Oby would be allowed the chance to oversee the affairs of this cursed country.

These people sees the important in these northern people, reason why dy rush dem for VP

Another good candidate

Voting her

Although it’s not hidden truth that pdp and APC have nothing to offer they’d still be voted

Coming from a BMC who has ceaselessly insulted igbos since he was activated on Nairaland few months ago.

Since Nairaland permits hate speech against igbos you have a supporter in Seun.

Enjoy your 30k a month
