POLITICS – Fresh news report as former chairman of the defunct All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) and BoT member of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Don Etiebet, yesterday expressed optimism that Nigerians will overwhelmingly vote to re-elect President Muhammadu Buhari by 2019.
According to report gathered in a statement he personally signed and made available to journalists, Etiebet said giving the president sole ticket for the ruling APC by 2019 is the most logical thing for the party to do.
He expressed optimism that Nigerians will return Buhari “for the second term with far more votes than they did in 2015 and more votes for him than any presidential candidate in our national history”.
His words: “The President’s APC ticket for 2019 is natural, logical and cultural in a presidential system. An incumbent, most importantly and particularly a highly acclaimed performing president, is the pride bearer of his party’s touch.
“I can tell you that PMB will be given the honor and respect by his own party, the APC by returning him unopposed at the convention”.
