Buhari’s ‘Enemies’ Revealed Ahead of 2019 Election

A Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has revealed the supposed “enemies” of President Muhammadu Buhari ahead of the 2019 presidential election.

Bode Mustapha, a House of Representatives member from Ogun State, said those advising President Buhari to seek second term in office are his “real enemies” posing only as friends.

The APC chieftain, citing Buhari’s age and health status, said those who have the president’s genuine interest at heart will advise him to step down after expiration of his tenure in 2019.

“It is also my candid advice to President Buhari that with the complexity of almost 300 nationalities and the enormity and challenges of this nation, President Muhammadu Buhari should become another Nelson Mandela. Let him run for one term and let someone take over from him,” said Mustapha in an interview with The SUN.

“For any Nigerian or group of Nigerians, who has been in this country for the past one year calling on Buhari to re-contest, such a person or group must not only be sycophantic, but have their own hidden agenda which is not in the best interest of Nigeria and Nigerians.

“Anyone who genuinely has the interest of Nigeria at heart and indeed Buhari will not ask him to re-contest. With the state of his health and age, he will not be the best for Nigeria and Nigerians. President Buhari has come to stabilise and help Nigeria to fight the monster called corruption.

“To an extent, he has succeeded in doing this among other achievements; he should not listen to those sycophants who want him to re-contest or their own selfish reasons,” he said.
