We’ll replace Buhari in 2019; nothing will stop us, PDP Chairman, Sheriff, vows

Newly-appointed national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Ali Modu Sheriff, on Wednesday vowed to lead the party to regain control of the federal government in 2019.

Mr. Sheriff said nothing would stop his party, which lost power in 2015, from ousting the current All Progressives Congress’ administration.

Mr. Sheriff is a founding member of the All Progressives Congress. He defected to the PDP in 2014 ahead of national elections in 2015.

He gave his remarks on Wednesday in Umuahia, the Abia State capital, during a thanksgiving service organised to mark the victory of Governor Okezie Ikpeazu at the Supreme Court.

The court had on February 3 affirmed Mr. Okezie’s victory in the April 11, 2015 governorship election.

Mr. Sheriff, a former senator and governor of Borno State, who was named PDP national chairman on Tuesday night, said the PDP would soon come out with its master plan on how it would defeat the All Progressives Congress from power.

“We are here today, we are starting from here, and we are going to Aso Rock, Insha Allah by 2019,” the PDP chairman said.

“We will head from here and we will do it together. This my long cap is prepared to lead my colleagues and brothers to Aso Rock, Insha Allah.

“By the grace of Allah nothing will deter this party from going to Aso Rock in 2019. By the time we put down our master-plan I am sure they (APC) will go back to where they came from. And Insha Allah, nothing will stop us.”

President Muhammadu Buhari has not indicated he would seek a fresh term at the expiration of his office in 2019.

Mr. Sheriff, who arrived the event late, regretted missing the speech presented by Mr. Okezie, but expressed confidence that he spoke well.

Mr. Sheriff noted that from the crowd he saw in the stadium where the event held, was clear that the governor was popularly elected.

He said, “I missed the speech of my younger brother the governor of Abia State who stayed in Maiduguri, who I have known in Maiduguri. But I am sure he said all the right things.

“From what I have seen in the stadium, it is clear that his election is the election of the people. It is election that God has destined. It is not election that we call it election by air, election by writing. This is the election of the people.”

Earlier in his remark, the Deputy National Chairman of the PDP, Uche Secondus, congratulated the governor on his victory at the Supreme Court.

He said it was clear that the governor came to power by popular mandate.
Speaking on behalf of his colleagues, the governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, said the change the nation expected could turn out to be “chance”.

Mr. Okezie said since he assumed he had provided infrastructure in the state, including the construction of about six roads in Aba.

Other PDP governors who attended the event include Nyesome Wike (Rivers), Ifeanyi Okowa (Delta), Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom) and deputy governor of Ebonyi State, who represented the state governor, David Umahi.

The four governors like Mr. Okezie had their elections confirmed by the Supreme Court.

Why Nigeria is disorganised – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari, on Tuesday, said Nigeria is disorganized largely because of its reliance on a mono economic product for too long.
According to him, with the fall of oil prices in the international market, the nation has no option but to return to agriculture and solid minerals.

According to a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, the President stated this when he received a team of members of the British parliament at the State House, Abuja. The team was led by Hon. Chi Onwurah.

Lamenting the present situation, President Buhari said where the nation found itself is another phase of development, “which is not a very welcome one. We are disorganized because we relied on mono-economic product for too long, and now that oil price is down, we have to go back to agriculture and solid minerals. Tin, columbite, cocoa, groundnut, and others, used to be the basis of our economy, but then, oil came, and everybody began to look for cheap money. Now, we need to start all over again.”


Speaking further, Buhari told the British parliamentarians that Nigeria expects a lot from Britain in her rebuilding process, due to the affinity shared by the two countries.

“We are going to rebuild Nigeria, and there are vast opportunities for Britain and us. We share very close ties, and our expectation from you is high.”

Hon. Onwurah, a Nigerian-born MP for Newcastle, told the President that the team was in the country “to promote positive engagement between Nigeria and the UK, since we are stronger when we build on ties of the past.”

According to her, the team was interested in how the Diaspora can support the economic progress of Nigeria, as well as promotion of trade and diversification of the economy.

Oil gloom: Nigeria is disorganized because we relied on product for too long – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday admitted that Nigeria relied on crude oil for too long as a single source of revenue, stressing that such explains why the country is disorganized now that oil prices are down.

Buhari, who disclosed this to a team of members of the British parliament led by a Nigerian-born MP for Newcastle, Hon Chi Onwurah at the State House, Abuja, however assured that his administration will rebuild Nigeria.

Noting that a lot of support is expected from the former colonial masters due to the affinity shared by the two countries, he said: “We are going to rebuild Nigeria and there are vast opportunities for Britain and us. We share very close ties and our expectation from you is high.

“We are disorganised because we relied on mono-economic product for too long and now that oil price is down, we have to go back to agriculture and solid minerals.

“Tin, columbite, cocoa, groundnut, and others, used to be the basis of our economy, but, then, oil came, and everybody began to look for cheap money. Now, we need to start all over again.”

In her remarks, Onwurah said the team was in the country “to promote positive engagement between Nigeria and the UK, since we are stronger when we build on ties of the past.”

The MP added that her team was interested on how the Diaspora can support the economic progress of Nigeria, as well as promotion of trade and diversification of the economy.
