The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Friday lambasted
President Muhammadu Buhari for saying he will win the
2019 presidential election.
PDP said Buhari was “suffering from self-deception to think
he can win the 2019 Presidential election, in spite of his
abysmal performance and widespread rejection by
Nigerians.”
Recall that Buhari had while speaking at the Abubakar
Tafawa Balewa Stadium in Bauchi, the Bauchi state capital,
yesterday, expressed optimism that he will win the 2019
Presidential election.
Buhari had said, “I contested election for the first time,
second and third times, but lost. I said good and contested
election again for the fourth time and won. I am telling you, I
am going to contest election again for the seat of president
and I will win because I have never been found wanting.”
But reacting to Buhari’s comment, PDP said the president
had failed to come to terms that Nigerians will resist him
and any attempt to rig the presidential election.
A statement by PDP’s spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan
reads, “It is indeed unfortunate and characteristic of failed
leaders that President Buhari cannot read the clear
handwriting on the wall, even as demonstrated by the scanty
attendance at his Bauchi rally on Thursday, where he
boasted about winning the 2019 elections.”
