May Nigeria Never Witness Another Buhari’s Govt — Primate Ayodele / Olugbenga Olaoye: We Cannot Afford Another Sick President / 2023: Northerners Can’t Be Forced To Vote Southern President – Baba-Ahmed (2) (3) (4)

Northerners Can’t Afford Another Buhari As President In 2023 — NEF by treesun: 4:04pm On Jan 15, 2022
The Northern Elders’ Forum says the region will only vote for a competent president regardless of where he comes from in the 2023 presidential election in the country.

The NEF noted that it won’t repeat the same mistake of voting for just any candidate as done to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), based on sentiment in 2015.

The Forum described Buhari as a disappointment to not only the North but the entire country.

The NEF’s Director of Publicity and Advocacy, Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, stated this in an interview with newsmen on the sideline of the meeting of northern leaders of thought and groups held at the Arewa House, Kaduna on Saturday.

According to the NEF’s spokesman, a northerner and his southern counterpart have equal rights to vie for the nation’s exalted office in the 2023 presidential race.

He, however, said that the north would vote for a competent president in 2023 whether from the north or south, adding that the region would go for a competent ‘Nigerian president’ only.

Baba-Ahmed maintained that no northern presidential candidate should take the region for granted in the 2023 race, pointing out that that was how the region ended up with what he described as the “Buhari mistake”.



He said the north was deceived into voting in Buhari believing that the country would be better off. He, however, lamented that the reverse was the case today as the north and the entire country was worst off than when Buhari took over in 2015.


“No northerner should take us for granted. That’s how we ended up with President Buhari. We don’t want to repeat the same mistake. If you must be a northerner who’s better than all the candidates; for us, that’s the bottom line. It’s not enough to be a northerner, you have to be the best. You have to be the best for the North and you have to be the best for the rest of Nigeria.

“We are looking for a Nigerian President. If it comes from the North, fine but he must be voted for by Nigerians and he must be good and he must be better than all the others. That’s what we are looking for.”

He scored the Buhari’s regime low in all aspects ranging from the worsening security, corruption to the sorry state of the nation’s economy and summed him up as a “disappointment.”

If this government was a university student in his final year, it would have accumulated a lot of carryovers.
The person that is coming to take over would have a lot of cleaning to do. That is why we need to elect a competent person and not someone whose ambition is just to become a president.

We are not actually a card carrying member of any political party in Nigeria.
The only 2 guys we love in Naija politics are our darling Daddy and his amiable Vice.
Now, Zulum has joined the rank.
We only go to the polls on election day to cast our votes for good, honest men that meant well for the nation, no matter the party they are.
And you don't have to be a party member to do that.

But in the past one month, we have noticed how all the top big wigs and non-politicians alike are all joining APC in their various Constituencies, from Governors, to Businesses owners and Entrepreneurs.
We are looking and researching about the good ones among them already.

Serveyouright:

The best for the job so far. If only greedy men in politics will allow this combo to fly.
We sane, good, honest and hardworking Nigerians will do all in our power to make this Combo work.
That is why we all must come together.

Nigeria will be great again in our lifetime

iHart:
I love this man
We Love him too.
Only fraudsters, criminals, thieves and losers in life don't like him obviously cool.

There is only so much one can take before you start think rationally.

2023 will be very interesting.

Even if the North votes for the APC by majority, it would be keenly contested this time and won't be in the same margins as 2019.

Buhari only became president to enjoy his life and mark register as civilian president

His goals are;
To make sure his Fulani kinsmen gain more territories through whatever means

To enjoy all the benefits attached to office of the president to take care of himself
