Just-In: All Past Nigerian Presidents Dump President Buhari, Rally Around Atiku Abubakar, For The 2019 Presidency

Nov 26, 2018 7:21 PM

An observation of the political situation around the country, just ahead of the 2019 general elections, insinuates that most of the past Presidents of Nigeria still alive, have abandoned President Muhammadu Buhari, of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, for the 2019 elections, while directly and in some cases, indirectly declaring support for the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

Post-Nigeria recalls, that yesterday was the turbaning of the PDP Presidential Candidate, as the Waziri of Adamawa Emirate; an occasion that saw former Presidents, Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, fly all the way to Adamawa State, to show great support for the PDP Candidate, ahead of the 2019 general elections.

You may recall also, that former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, had publicly rejected President Muhammadu Buhari for the 2019 Presidency, in an open letter, in which he advised the President not to seek a second term in office, citing very bad governance in general.

The former President, had also publicly recently endorsed Atiku Abubakar, who was not in his good books for many years. He publicly forgave Atiku, and has since then shown public support, and fully endorsed the PDP Candidate for the 2019 Presidency, to the shock of many.

Elsewhere, former Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida, had also written a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, condemning his government, and like Olusegun Obasanjo, advising the President not to seek re-election in 2019.

Although, the former Head of State has not publicly endorsed Atiku Abubakar, many have easily drawn the conclusion that he is indeed in support of an Atiku Presidency, come 2019.

With most of the country’s past Leaders totally against a Buhari Presidency in 2019, and fully in support of an Atiku Presidency, with the hope to restore the country’s lost glory and alleviate the current sufferings of the people, many political Observers wonder whose endorsements President Muhammadu Buhari would be relying on, for success at the 2019 polls.
