Five Signs Buhari Will Win In 2019 by BiteofBenin(op): 7:07am On Oct 28, 2017
The campaign for the 2019 Presidential elections has begun and from the look of things, Nigeria already has a winner. This is in spite of the occasional whimper from other political parties and their feeble attempts to present viable options. Here are five signs President Muhammadu Buhari will return to the Villa come 2019.
• Silent opposition: To ensure his uncontested return to Aso Rock, Buhari began his electioneering campaign with a relentless attack against its main opposition; the Peoples’ Democratic Party. With cases of graft hanging on its most vocal members and the party torn from within by internal strife ostensibly caused by APC moles, Nigeria has lost its fiercest opposition.
• Formidable money war chest: Like it or not, you need money to run campaigns and Buhari has already begun to amass an endless stash. Why else do you think he is slow to act on allegations of corruption against his men? Think Babachir Lawal’s N270m grass cutting scandal and diversion of N12bn meant for IDPs; $25bn NNPC contract scam by NNPC’s Group Managing Director, Maikanti Baru; Buhari’s Chief of Staff Abba Kyari who allegedly collected a N500m bribe from MTN; and the $43m stashed away in an Osbourne Towers apartment where Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi also owns an apartment. Also include the search for crude oil in Lake Chad, Bauchi and Nassarawa that has gulped millions of naira. Need I go on?
• Security agencies headed by inner cabal: The security of lives and property are a huge part of any election and 2019 will not be any different. With the heads of the Army, Police and Airforce all part of Buhari’s inner circle, his campaign machinery is sure to get security cover for any form of election malpractice.
• Electoral body firmly in the kitty: The Independent National Electoral Commission is chaired by Mahmood Yakubu, a northerner from Bauchi state. In addition there are five national commissioners; three of whom hail from the north. Little wonder that INEC since Buhari took over power has been unable to successfully conduct peaceful and fair elections. As to whether your vote will be allowed to count in 2019, your guess is as good as mine.
• Sheepish populace: Last but not the least is the gullible Nigerian populace who easily buy into every lie. Every election year, Nigerians happily sell their voting rights for paltry sums, bags of rice, kegs of oil and any other pittance political contestants deem fit to throw our way. We can be trusted again to do same when Buhari’s team comes around with their money bags in 2019. Finnaly, we can be sure to vote in any candidate with Nepa bill as school certificate simply because we don’t like a sitting president’s face or his region.

Buhari will easily win the 2019 poll even if he is on wheel chair. It is very easy.
