Atiku is a shameless cretin. He went to the venue of the debate to take pictures and not to engage other candidates. Nigerians are not fool, we understand his antics. What’s more disgraceful for him is how he disrespected the other candidates and millions of Nigerians who wanted to engage and listen to him. He’s as empty as we suspected. He’s only in the race to loot and enrich himself. Dude is a real fraud.

Obviously Nigerians are not fools,but YOU are a FOOL

PRESS STATEMENT BY APC PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN COUNCIL:
WHY PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI DID NOT ATTEND THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE ORGANISED BY THE NIGERIA ELECTION DEBATE GROUP AND THE BROADCASTING ORGANISATIONS OF NIGERIA

The President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, who is also the APC Presidential Candidate in the forthcoming Presidential Election, President Muhammadu Buhari, could not attend the Presidential Debate organised by the Nigeria Election Debate Group and the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria which held today, Saturday, January 19, 2019 for the following reasons:

Firstly, out of several opportunities afforded our candidate to interact with the Nigerian people directly by different organisations, our presidential candidate has taken full advantage of another town-hall meeting organized by another group which held on Wednesday, January 16, 2019. He was also joined at that town-hall meeting by our Vice-Presidential candidate who is also the Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, SAN. Nigerians from all walks of life who were physically present and through on-line platforms asked uncensored questions which were adequately answered. It was also transmitted live by various broadcast networks in Nigeria.

In addition, the busy and hectic official and campaign schedules of Mr. President clashed with this programme. Today, Mr. President commissioned the Baro Inland Water Port in Niger State and campaigned in Niger and Plateau States where his time was over-stretched by the tumultuous and mammoth crowds in both States, (as seen by Nigerians on live television) and only returned to Abuja late this evening.

Whilst we thank the organisers for the invitation, we want to assure Nigerians that we shall continue to hold these debate groups and Nigerians in high esteem which our candidate has demonstrated during past election debates when he honoured similar invitations. Nigerians will also recall that a few weeks ago, our Vice-Presidential candidate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, also attended the debate organized by the same organisations.

Lastly, we note the statement of the candidate of the PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar who actually came for the event and left the venue when he did not see Mr. President, who is our candidate. According to him, he would not want to “attack” Mr. President in his absence.

It should now be obvious to Nigerians that for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and the PDP, this election is all about attacking the person and programmes of Mr. President and not about proffering their own solutions to the problems they created during their sixteen years of misrule, maladministration and looting of the nation’s resources. When they cannot see President Buhari to attack, the content of their campaign becomes hollow, empty and “full of sound and fury, signifying nothing”. Now that Atiku Abubakar had a unique opportunity to explain to Nigerians his own vision and mission without a President Buhari in the picture, he ran away. Afterall, he has his own eight years of crass and grand corruption as Vice President to defend before the Nigerian people.

On February 16, 2019 we urge Nigerians to demonstrate to Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and the PDP, through their votes, how empty indeed their campaign has always been and to vote massively for President Muhammadu Buhari and Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, SAN who have started the rebuilding process of our great nation.

Thank you.

dakun lo so fun buhari wipe atiku so pe ki o murasile fun presidential debate miran. Please can you just tell him? We must not hear that he's going to attend a town hall meeting or go to campaign again ooo

eyeview:
Tell buhari that Atiku has challenged him to fix a date and place convenient for him.
No need for this long grammar and excuses

The Lion King does not sit with dogs and baboons

The president CANNOT discuss matters of national importance because these things require intelligence. It's easier and more useful for him to pander to his largely illiterate and ignorant supporter base by screaming 4+4 and nextlevel. Tell us what it contains then, instead we get excuses and communique releases.

Atiku is a shameless cretin. He went to the venue of the debate to take pictures and not to engage other candidates. Nigerians are not fool, we understand his antics. What’s more disgraceful for him is how he disrespected the other candidates and millions of Nigerians who wanted to engage and listen to him. He’s as empty as we suspected. He’s only in the race to loot and enrich himself. Dude is a real fraud.

then if atiku has all this? What about Buhari that originally started the mockery of the debate?

I know they must have something to say rubbish.

Pot and kettle name shaming the other black!

I owe a bottle of Orijin.

I am not in any way surprised.

The only thing I did not know before was the reply to Atiku.

Aside that, I predict NOLLYWOOD easily.

ALL APC MEMBERS NEEDS TO BE ISOLATED FROM THIS COUNTRY!

At least you saw him taking pictures and he was even around. Mtchewwwww where was Mr lifeless (PABU)

May gods of thunder strike you there mr keyamo with your unnecessary explanation's

So you went and out your commissioning ish into an already scheduled debate for almost three months now?
Simple curtsey or dim it fit to issue a statement earlier that you wouldn't be making it to the debate. ( of course we don't matter and doesn't deserve any explanations)

All of you should just continue. The chicken will still come home to roost

some fellows that came in without a plan, took six months to get a cabinet, took 3 yrs to blame the predecessor govt and in the last yr of its tenure started running around like a chicken with out a head to form that it is working.
Wasting our precious four yrs which we should have used to play catch up with far gone nations.

Is it about a wrestling match btw 2 people or an opportunity to sell oneself alone.

I see, Atiku is your problem.

Oweku:
Story for the gods.... If after what played out today, you still go ahead to vote in APC or PDP that cannot come and tell you how they will lead you... You have a problem..

Nigerians are blind followers... they follow candidate base on these 2 reasons (I) religion (ii/ ethnic background....

I can't comprehend it....
U left US for Nigeria to debate and because of the absent of the incumbent president you refuse to participate in the debate despite the fact that you are on ground to participate....
You took all your entire followers for granted...
God will judge you

bizzibodi:

Debate is not campaign.
At a campaign, you are free to market yourself with unrealistic promises like "I will make N1 equal to $1. I will stabilise the price of crude in the international market. I will pay every unemployed youth a stipend till they get job etc.
But at a debate you are made to explain "how" you intend to achieve that.

If one will not come to answer "how", then he's not serious

And some people will still go and vote APC and PDP when Sowore actually went to court to challenge his non inclusion in the debate.

What a great pity.

Nigerians are looking for experienced thieves to vote into power AGAIN.

Vote them into power then go to Church or mosque and be calling on "God of miracle" to come and solve your problems. He will send thunder from above to split your skulls.

Hmm. Sometimes i wonder if this Keyamo guy has an active conscience sha.
They are just so confident with this power they have,knowing fully well they would rig CONVENIENTLY.
Olorun o ni fun yin seh.

Rubbish and nonsense
