PoliticsBabangida Backs Atiku 2019 Presidential Bid. by Atiku2019(op): 4:50am On Dec 09, 2017
A former Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida, on Friday declared his support for Atiku Abubakar, as the former vice president intensifies consultations for a presidential run in 2019.

Mr. Babangida, Nigeria’s leader from 1985-1993, said media reports that he advised Mr. Abubakar not to run for election during a closed-door meeting Thursday was ‘laughable’ because it was ‘sponsored’.

“Anybody who has sponsored such report was just being unfair” to Messrs. Babangida and Abubakar, Kassim Afegbua, a spokesperson for the former military leader, told PREMIUM TIMES Friday evening.

Mr. Afegbua said no one knew the outcome of the meeting because it was held behind closed-doors amongst the two leaders.

The comments came a day after the two leaders met at the hilltop residence of Mr. Babangida in Minna, the Niger State capital, around noon Thursday.

Media accounts of the meeting said Mr. Abubakar angrily left his host because he was advised not to run against President Muhammadu Buhari.

The reports further speculated that the unfriendly face Mr. Abubakar allegedly wore indicated that he was rejected by Mr. Babangida.

“The report is very, very untrue,” Mr. Afegbua said. “When I read the report, I was laughing. Because it is far from what they both discussed.”

“Number one, IBB will not discourage anyone from seeking office. IBB will encourage anyone to seek election,” the spokesperson added.

Mr. Afegbua said the relationship between his principal and his host remains cordial, warning reporters to stop playing politics with people’s relationship.

“They had a very useful political discussion. IBB also has a good relationship with Atiku. It’s not good to play politics with the relationship of people.”

Similarly, Paul Ibe, a spokesperson for Mr. Abubakar said since the meeting was held by only the two leaders, it would be difficult for anyone to know the details.

“Except those who were carrying these fake speculations were flying on the wall, there’s no way anyone would have known what happened,” Mr. Ibe said. “The report is a figment of the imagination of people.”

Mr. Ibe said the two leaders have been friends for a long time, and the outcome of their meeting was positive.

“Both leaders have enjoyed a mutual relationship for many years and what I gathered was that the meeting was very, very fruitful,” he added.

PoliticsRe: How Governor Wike Bought PDP by Atiku2019: 4:27am On Dec 09, 2017
Brookinfo:
[s]HOW WIKE BOUGHT PDP:
• Spends 15.5billion naira to finance Secondus, PDP Convention
• Reminds PDP stakeholders that he paid 7billion naira to secure judgment for Makarfi
• Gave 6 Govs 1B Naira each to support Secondus
• Paid Makarfi 2.5B cash & Contracts
• Paid 3 members of PDP CTC 500m
• Paid each party chairman 5m
• Each delegate to get $10,000 to vote Secondus

Indications have emerged that Governor Nyesom Wike may likely have his candidate, Uche Secondus installed as PDP National Chairman at the party's convention scheduled for tomorrow Saturday 9th December.

Reports show that the Governor has spent a minimum sum of 15b naira to sponsor the convention. The Governor is also reported to have bought up almost everybody of influence in the PDP.
The recent outbursts of former military President Ibrahim Babangida, Chief Bode George, Ebenezer Babatope and other stakeholders especially from the South West against the PDP National Caretaker Committee Chairman, Sen.Ahmed Makarfi is connected to the fact that Gov. Wike is single handedly funding the Convention with a whopping 15.5b naira. This is aside the offers he made influential members of the party including its National Caretaker Committee Chairman, Sen. Ahmed Makarfi who recently picked up 2.5b naira cash and a multi billion naira contract alongside 3 other important members of the Committee who also got at least 500m each from the Rivers Governor.

The Governor was also said to have reminded the party stakeholders how he spent over 7billion naira in securing judgment for the Sen. Makarfi faction of the party against Sen.Modu Sheriff at the Supreme Court.

To show his seriousness in securing the party's top post, Governor Wike is reported to have given each Northern PDP State Chairman 5m naira each and has budgeted $10,000 for each delegate who votes his candidate, Uche Secondus.

The Governor, who is derisively referred to as The Port Harcourt ATM by party top stakeholders on account of his huge financial inducement is leaving no stone un-turned in acquiring the PDP ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The Governor had earlier promised to support Atiku Abubakar's Presidential ambition but later appeared to be backing down on the promise, prompting a surprising visit from former President Goodluck Jonathan who is one of Atiku's strongest backers.

Governor Wike has a reputation of heavy financial inducements, his name had cropped up at every bribery saga since 2015. He was caught on tape compromising and threatening INEC officials who were in the state to conduct the several re-run elections held recently.

Meanwhile back home in Rivers State, the government is owing a lot of backlog in arrears and pensions including over 24 and 7months owed staff of Rivers State Sustainable Dev.Agency and GPH Agency respectively. The Governor is also known for embarking on low-value projects spiced up with massive media coverage.

As it stands now, it will take a miracle for anybody in the party to meet Wike'[/s]s huge financial war chest.

Because the Atiku I know will never agree to a single term after struggling for the presidency for the past 24 years.

Except if anyone is gullible enough to believe him if he does.
