Presidential Debate: Why Nigerians Disagree With Buhari’s Excuse by OEPHIUS(op): 7:39am On Jan 20, 2019
Atiku was in FIVE States on Tuesday (six, if you count abuja), came to Lagos on Tuesday night, had more meetings on Tuesday night; then woke up Wednesday morning to an 8am strategy meeting. Then he went to a 10am economic interactive session, had FIVE interviews with leading international media (Reuters, BBC world, BBC Hausa, Bloomberg and Financial Times). Then, went on to another meeting with leading lights of the creative industry. At 7pm, he met with Lagos State Christian Association of Nigeria. And, finally, at 11.25pm, he flew out on British Airways to London, on his way to Washington DC.

Thirty three hours after landing in Washington, Atiku flew out on a 10 hour 30 minutes flight direct to Abuja to attend the debate of all presidential candidates, only to learn that Buhari did not turn up.

Conversely, Buhari went from Warri to Kaduna, fell down twice, and then said his schedule is too hectic to allow him debate........... and he is busy resting down the road in Aso Rock.

If only Tinubu have been helping him like the president suggested when he handed over the presidential campaign to Tinubu.
But alas Tinubu knows that if the president should stress him self on these campaign Buhari just might be too waak to be president God forbid he kpeme and Osibanjo will now be president like it happened to Jonathan.
That's the only reason the Yorubas are supporting Buhari because they anticipate Buhari's demise after all Buhari is already stumbling from rally to rally how far can the president go with these rallies

Buhari simply chickened out.
Even a day or two before the debate, they already settled within the apc that he won't come. As one guy in his campaign train told a friend when asked if Buhari will be at the debate "una go wait tire".

But trust APC and hypocrisy, their media handlers have been sent out to turn the table against atiku for not debating as a means of distracting us from Buhari chickening out

He said he has handed over all his campaign activities to Tinubu to ease up his governance , yet he is seen jukenting from state to state. It’s either he did not hand over to Tinubu or he intentionally missed the debate

95% of Nigerians have no access to aso rock or state government houses. How we benefit from the government is when policies that have economic and social vibrancy are made.

Policies that promotes businesses and create jobs and improve our well-being's.

Before you cast your vote to buhari ask your self if his policies have done the above mentioned to Nigeria.

Governance is about the populace and any government whose policies subject it subjects to poverty, insecurity and hardship are jettisoned in a population of sensible people.

Nigeria and Nigerians will be categorized as a population of fools if incompetence and bad governance is re-elected.

Please More LIKES For The Incoming President
Re: Presidential Debate: Why Nigerians Disagree With Buhari’s Excuse by Nobody:
Atiku did the right thing... why debate on the policies of a man who cant dim it fit to defend his policies, while even calling them "POLITICAL DWARFS"...

He has created an open schedule to debate anyday & time Buhari picks along with other contestants.

The presidential debate held yesterday night has clearly shown those who truly put the interest of well meaning Nigerians at heart and those who pretend to put the interest at heart.
Fellow compatriots, the decision to do the needful is right on our thumb as we all go to the poll because no one is bigger than our dear country, Nigeria.

Since last year, the date of the debate was made known. If the cabals were serious to allow Buhari to attend the debate, they would have worked on his itinerary to accommodate the day of the debate. Now they are using campaign rallies as excuse

shocked

The weak, lifeless dullard, APC and zombies are fools. Prior to the debate proper, these fools have been cooking up childish excuses why the dullard won't attend. All sane Nigerians knew from day one the dullard won't attend, this is a man that requires an interpreter before he could grab a word. How do one expect him to cope? The APC should save themselves the stress of trying to convince us, they will sure need the energy in parking the dullard's bags back to daura

Buhari's body language since last year already indicated he won't attend the debates.
