Ahead of the 2019 Presidential polls, a pro Buhari group, the All
\nProgressive Congress \u2013 Vanguard, (APC-V) said it has withdrawn support
\nfor President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s re-election, accusing him of failing to
\ndeliver on his campaign promises to Nigerians.<\/p>\n
The group insisted that it would be difficult for the President to win
\nre-election in 2019, stressing that that Buhari\u2019s performance in office
\nhas rendered him unfit for re-election, and urged him to give way to
\nanother candidate from the North.<\/p>\n
National Coordinator of APC-Vanguard, Mr. Olusegun Bamgbose, who disclosed
\nthat his group toured many cities across the federation campaigning for
\nthe President in 2015, added that they are already assessing presidential
\naspirants and would declare support for anyone who has the capability to
\nunite the nation and make life more meaningful for the populace.<\/p>\n
He lamented that Buhari\u2019s administration has been hijacked by a cabal and
\ncould no longer deliver on the campaign promises he made to Nigeria,
\nstressing that it would be difficult to sell his candidacy in 2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Muhammadu Buhari has failed Nigeria. Nigerian is now more
\ndivided under Buhari. The President has been treating the issue of the
\nmurderous Fulani herdsmen with kid gloves.\u00a0 The anti graft war is nothing
\nto write home about. He has failed to perform and should simply go home
\nand support another northerner in 2019.\u00a0 The APC would lose the presidency
\nif they field Buhari in 2019.\u00a0 It is the same manner we warned the PDP not
\nto field Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.<\/p>\n
“Many Nigerians who backed Buhari in 2015 have left him. On what basis
\nwill anybody market Buhari for 2019? What are you going to tell Nigerians
\nto vote Buhari again for? It will be very difficult for Buhari because
\nNigerians are wiser and can only tolerate the President till 2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
On whether his group\u2019s decision was not based on lack of patronage from
\nthe President, Bamgbose said,\u201d I\u2019m not looking for any appointment from
\nBuhari. Remember we toured many states with our resources campaigning for
\nBuhari in 2015; now, we have nothing to go back and show the people. What
\nwe want is a better life for Nigerians and a President who will unite this
\ncountry. So far, it is obvious that Buhari has failed Nigerians.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
