Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has described All Progressives Congress Presidential Candidate, General Mohammadu Buhari (rtd) as a permanent presidential candidate because according to him, we will be swearing in President Goodluck Jonathan come 2015.
The Minister made this statement at a Press Conference in Bauchi. He said “We are not people who encourage other people to perpetrate violence because they want to win elections. We are not going to join issues with anybody who is just a permanent aspirant just for running for the presidency.
“We have a template, we have a roadmap. We have a vision and we know where we want to be and certainly we are not afraid of anybody. We respect Nigerians and we respect leaders. We are not like the other parties who abuse leaders. With all humility, I assure that in 2015, we will be swearing in Dr Goodluck Jonathan as president.”
Mohammed commended President Jonathan’s transformation agenda, he said “Mr President has come up with a transformation agenda and he is working hard to bring major and tangible achievements to Nigeria. You have seen it in all the MDAs, even in agriculture, he has done so well. In the economy, we are today the biggest economy in Africa.
“The president has done well as a tested technocrat who has risen through the rank from a teacher to a deputy governor, to a governor, vice president and then the president, and these positions have been tested.
The minister urged the people of Bauchi to ensure that in 2015, they vote PDP at all levels so that they can enjoy more dividends of democracy.
