PMB's govt is shameless for talking about 2019 - Mohammed
– Ex-lawmaker Dr. Junaid Mohammed
has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s govt as shameless for saying
Nigerians will support him in 2019 – Mohammed says Buhari’s govt is
power-hungry, hypocritical and corruption-ridden for talking about 2019 even
without no achievements after one and half year in office Dr. Junaid Mohammed,
a second republic member of the House of Representatives, has slammed the
government of President Muhammadu Buhari for saying Nigerians will rally behind
the president in 2019, Vanguard reports. Recall that the presidency on Monday,
November 21, dismissed suggestions that the masses will dump President Buhari
in 2019, saying it’s unfounded and utterly ridiculous.
But in a swift response on Tuesday,
November 22, Mohammed said it is shameful that Buhari’s government is already
talking about 2019 even without no achievements after one and half year in
office. Mohammed said: “It is very unfortunate and shameless that a government
that is yet to do anything is already talking of 2019. It is very unfortunate
that a party like APC that is fast becoming moribund is already talking of 2019
when they have nothing to show for the four years Nigerians gave them. This
development shows they are power-hungry, hypocritical and corruption-ridden.
“This entire 2019 discussion is
ridiculous. I believe a government that has performed will rely on its
performance before being considered for another four years in office. We are
not even in the middle of the four-year term given to them and they are already
talking of 2019. This is an unfortunate development and it shows the ineptitude
of the government. For a man that has led us into the worst recession ever and
has got nothing to show Nigerians since he assumed office to be talking of
2019, shows how shameless the government can be.”
Presidential spokesperson, Mallam
Garba Shehu, reacting to allegations by a former Congress for Progressive
Change (CPC) member, Alhaji Buba Galadima that President Buhari would be
abandoned by the people in 2019, asserted that “ordinary Nigerians are the
backbone of his (Buhari’s) mandate and the only reason he ran for the office is
to protect them against the rapacious merchants of corruption, who have held
Nigeria back for decades.” According to Shehu, the masses are solidly behind
Buhari for 2019 because the incumbent president is not stealing their money and
their future. Shehu added that the president’s enormous goodwill remains ever
strong and the people are convinced that Buhari is acting in their best
interest.
