(i) You may recall that I had been elected Governor of Adamawa State in 1999, but before I could assume office, Chief Obasanjo selected me as his running mate.

Well, enormous pressure was put on me by what you might call the Adamawa (Muslim) elite not to allow my running mate, Mr Boni Haruna, to become Governor, mainly because of his Christian faith.

I refused, and fought all the way to the Supreme Court to ensure that the Constitution was followed. Again, after his first term I was prevailed upon to prevent him from running for second term.

Again I turned them down. Virtually all of them abandoned me and the governor. But Adamawa people stood by us and for fairness.

As I said, Adamawa is like Nigeria; thus, we may not survive a religious war. Therefore, it would be the height of recklessness and irresponsibility to start one. In any case, no one who favours one religion over the other can win a presidential election in this country.

Meaning Buhari Did Not Favour Muslims Before 2015?

Is that why you have never got to the final? Because, you always got dropped at quarter final. Keep dreaming, we shall see where 5% will take you to.

Exactly. But watch how some rats with heads like deflated tyres will soon go back to their vomitous. They will start telling us how Buhari’s imaginary bigotry started only after swearing in. Their mumu button is just about criticising Buhari, anyone that does that qualifies for their god. If Shekau criticise Buhari today, I swear they will suck his balls.

Buhari was only used in 2015 by desperate political class with an undercurrent of returning power to Arewa.
The buharideens were helped by coalitions of votes outside of the bigotry. 2019 a different politics all together!
