El-rufai 'confident' APC Will Win Presidency, Retain 24 States In 2019. by Pharaoh001(f): 8:49am On Jan 29, 2018
I have no doubt in my mind that we will
win the 2019 Presidential election- Gov El-
Rufai
In an interview with Channels Television,
Governor El-Rufai has expressed his
confidence of APC to win the 2019
presidential elections without much stress.
He stated :
“I have no doubt in my mind that we will
win the 2019 Presidential election. We will
also win our 24 States and more.”
“We are not saying this foolishly, this is
scientific. We are monitoring the pulse
of Nigerians, not the pulse of a section
of Nigerians and I am confident that we
are going to win the 2019 elections.”
Amid the criticism that has hit President
Muhhamadu Buhari’s administration
recently, El-Rufai believes the APC
remains focused on delivering on its
campaign promises to Nigerians.
He said Nigeria is divided into two,
stressing that the disapproval is coming
from a selected group of people while
the Federal Government is conscious of
the people’s stance.
The governor said: “We know the pulse
of the nation, we know where we are
losing support, we know where we are
gaining support; I have no doubt in my
mind that we are going to win the 2019
elections.
“There are two pulses of Nigerians –
there is the pulse of the Nigerian elites
which is the noise that you hear in the
media, the social media and so on; then
there is the pulse of the people.
“If you remember how many people
came out to welcome President Buhari
in Kano, then you will know that there
are two Nigerias.”

Reacting to the explosive statement
issued by former President Olusegun
Obasanjo on Tuesday last week ,
Governor El Rufai said he is yet to read
it, noting that “it is too long and I am
very busy.”
He said the Buhari administration is not
disturbed by the statement as both the
Presidency and the party have
responded to the issues raised by the
former president.
“You know (former) President Obasanjo
is a Nigerian, he’s a patriot and he is
entitled to his opinion just like every
other Nigerian.
“We are moving on, we are planning to
deliver on our promises and when the
time comes we will be ready for the
2019 elections with whoever and
whatever party that exists. There are 73
parties in Nigeria; we are going to face
them and I’m confident as I said,” he
reiterated.
The governor said he has been a loyalist
to President Buhari and would continue
to be “till death do us part (he jokes).”
He, however, said being one of those
that have been asking the President to
seek re-election was not because of
what he stands to gain but in the
interest of the people.
“I believe that it is in the overall interest
of our party and the stability of Nigeria;
It is not because I stand to gain or lose
anything,” said El-Rufai. “But it is
because in everything I’ve done since I
got into public service, for me the
interest of Nigeria comes first.
“God has given me everything through
the instrumentality of this country – I
don’t need anything as a person but
what I need is to see a country that is
making progress, that is stable and
leave a legacy for our children to build
on it,” he added.
