in Bauchi, Katsina and Kogi states have placed President Muhammadu Buhari
and Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo in good stead to win next
year’s presidential election.
Addressing journalists at the State House on Monday, the Senior Special
Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, said
election after election, Nigerians continue to place confidence on
President Buhari and the vice president.
Shehu said, “The decisive victories are an indication and a clear
statement by Nigerians that Nigerians have spoken; that President Buhari
maintains and retains his momentum that these big victories place the
Buhari, Osinbajo ticket that won in 2015, in a very good stead for next
year’s election.
“It represents certainly, a statement on the fact that the APC would go
into the election next year with every confidence that the election will
be won.
“Nigerians, by this statement, are also saying that they no longer have
time for politics of insults, diversion and mud slinging and the ‘monkey
dey work, baboon dey chop’ politics of the PDP”.
Shehu appealed to the National Assembly to work with President Buhari to
enable him to continue providing good governance.
