2019: No candidate ’ll match Buhari’s credibility – Campaign group

A political campaign group, PMB Sensitisation/Workshop Committee (PMB-SWC), North-central chapter has said that nobody in the country can defeat President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 general election.

The committee which is charged with responsibility to carry out sensitization workshop and rally for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari in the North-central and other parts of the country gave assurance that the President will be re-elected in 2019.

Chairman, North-central division of PMB-SWC, Williams Ozi-Raji, said this yesterday in Abuja while briefing newsmen on the activities of the group ahead of the 2019 general election.

Ozi-Raji said plans have been concluded to carry out sensitisation programme to ensure President Buhari is re-elected for a second term describing President Buhari as a man who had zero tolerance for corruption and injustice, noting that his political will had helped in transforming the economy.

“Within the age bracket of those who have served in government, we do not have anybody that equals PMB in terms of character, credibility and persons,” he said.

According to Ozi-Raji, the group will also work for the election of other contestants in the All Progressives Congress (APC), from ward to the federal level.

“After President Muhammadu Buhari, only a few of the younger generation can match his character and credibility, but within the age bracket of those who have served in government and still intend to serve they do not have any person that can equally wear his shoe.

“In achieving this, a lot has been put on ground structurally because if you do not plan, it simply means you have planned to fail. We are also to ensure that every Nigerian in the North Central is properly educated on what the President has done for Nigerians for him to deserve a second term.

“This will be from the ward, local and state level in the North Central States; the road transport workers, civil servants, the less privileged and the physically challenged will all be carried along”, he said.

He attributed the herdsmen killings across the country to ploy by desperate politicians to discredit the present government and frustrate the re-election of President Buhari in 2019.

“The election of Mr. President in 2015 was not because some politicians decamped from the PDP to the APC, but because he was one man who Nigerians felt it was time to do the right thing, and they gave him their votes.

“Those that defected to APC in 2015 did that because they wanted a situation where they will destabilize the efforts of Mr. President and the APC and now, that opportunity was lost, they thought it was time to return to their original party to carry out their enterprise.

Even if PMB stands alone in APC, the good news is that our votes will count and he will still win the election”.
