Lagos – A former Minister of Information, Chief Tony Momoh, on Thursday said he was confident President Muhammadu Buhari would win the 2019 presidential election.

Momoh said that the president had done his best as leader to deserve re-election.

He said the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, could not stop Buhari as he (Abubakar) was only popular with the elite and not the masses.

Momoh, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said the Buhari administration had impacted on many ordinary Nigerians, and they would vote him in 2019.

He, however, said Buhari would lose some votes in the North because Atiku is from the region, but that the APC candidate would make up in other regions to be able to win.

“I don’t think Atiku can defeat Buhari. No, he can’t, Buhari has done well in the delivery of his electoral promises and he will get the support of the people.

“Look at the war against insurgency for instance, has he not done well? Is the situation in the North East as it used to be? Of course there is relative security in the region and the people will want to vote for an administration that made that possible.

“Again, the school feeding programme, the conditional cash transfers and the other social programmes of the government, tens of thousands of Nigerians have benefitted. You don’t expect them not to vote Buhari.

“These are the real people that will vote, not the people on Facebook or Twitter. The people who are moving against the president now are the elite, not the people, and the reasons are obvious.

“Yes, Atiku is popular with the elite, but how many are they? So I don’t see him winning, though, he will get votes in the North as he is from that region and he is a Fulani and a Muslim like Buhari.

“However, the president will make up for lost votes in other regions like South East and South-South where he has delivered many projects to win,’’ he said.

The former minister said the achievements of the president’s fight against corruption and the power of incumbency would work in his favour in 2019.

Momoh said it was an illusion for the PDP to believe the selection of former governor, Peter Obi of Anambra as Atiku’s running mate would deliver the region to the party.

He said the Igbos are politically sophisticated and it had never been easy predicting their direction in any election.

Momoh argued that Buhari picked running mates, late Chuba Okadigbo and late Ume Ezeoke on two occasions for elections, but still lost in the South East.

The former minister said the region was open to both candidates in 2019, based on large number of both the APC and PDP members in the area.

Atiku and his goons after 2019 Presidential Election .

who ask you?










Mr.zombie

Buhari will hand over to Atiku on 29 may 2019

What you think doesn't matter baba bootlicker. What matters is Nigeria must be Atikulated, whether a select few like you like it or not. And note that rigging will never work in 2019.

Tony MuMuh - “However, the president will make up for lost votes in other regions like South East and South-South where he has delivered many projects to win,’’

Why do people like being divorced from reality. Where actually are these "Many" projects in the southeast this crooks keep jubilating about..

If not for the mistakes of 2015, we wont be here debating on lifelessness and failure.

Atiku/Obi 2019

Obviously he can't. Atiku can't boost of a single thing he did for Nigerians when he was in power rather he established several investments all for personal business so with no doubt, Atiku is out not for the betterment of Nigerians but rather for the betterment of himself. Nigerians should beware

Thomas-momoh

And APC have been in panic mode since he emerged Well they never saw him coming & will never see him when he win.Atiku/Obi.

Tony Momoh is a chieftain of the APC, he couldn't have said anything less less.

Tony Mumu your thought is irrelevant as it will not get Buhari more votes

Someone wasted 5 Billion Naira in one night and you want to entrust Nigeria to him? If you inject 5 billion into any public university in Nigeria and it is judiciously utilized, it will turn the infrastructure there around for good.

That is the amount our moneybag politician called Atiku Abubakar blew away in one night on 1500 individuals(Delegates). That is the mindset of the man who wants to be President...

Time will tell pmb till 2023 either they like it or not.

ẸskissSir your eyes go clear by February 16th, 17th and 18th

How much did Aisha Buhari, whose husband couldn't afford the cost of presidential nomination form 4 yesrs ago, loose to her aide recently in one swoop? A whooping #2.5bn. How much did Yusuf Buhari blow away when he crashed his power bike suddenly? Remove that plank in your eyes first so you may see properly.

Let's see

And i don't think buhari will win either
