2019 POLLS: UPP Adopts Buhari As Presidential Candidate by thegeniusmedia(op): 9:52pm On Nov 16, 2018
The United Progressives Party (UPP) has adopted President Muhammadu Buhari as its candidate for the general elections in 2019.

UPP National Chairman, Chekwas Okorie, disclosed this to State House correspondents after meeting with the President on Friday in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Mr Okorie said the adoption of President Buhari would be further confirmed when the UPP leaders meet on Tuesday next week.

He also denied reports that the people of the South East region have thrown their weight behind the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.

Earlier, President Buhari faulted the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for allegedly mismanaging the nation’s resources.

The President stressed that although the forthcoming elections should not be a do or die affair, he would never support the opposition party to lead the country.

“Let anybody lead this country but not the PDP,” he was quoted as saying in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr Garba Shehu.

The President added, “They (PDP) were so reckless with the resources of the country. The state of infrastructure we inherited was terrible – no roads, the railway was killed and power.

“They lacked conscience because anybody with a conscience will not do what they did. We will report them to Nigerians.”........https://www.thegeniusmedia.com.ng/2018/11/16/buhari-as-presidential-candidate/

Is UPP a political party worth reckoning with?

Anyone who knows Chekwas Okorie knows he is a traitor.
Same reason Ojukwu didn't like him,
Same reason his own wife couldn't live with him.
Same reason he wasn't comfortable living at Nza Street, Independence layout.

He is a sellout, a mediocre and an unrepentant asslicker.
It's sad that karma is hitting his kids instead of him. His daughter Ugonma just married a British man after falling out with the Anabas.

Buhari is going back to Daura and most of these folks giving him hope know this too.
But it is Nigeria, money must be made.

UPP was founded by Chief Chekwas Okorie same founder of APGA.

APGA is officially now working for APC.

Buhari will remain in office till 2023. Case closed
