Why president Buhari is yet to declare his intention for 2019

Through an interview by his spokesman, Femi Adesina at the weekend, president Buhari explained that he was keeping his intention close to his chest so that the opposition would not throw everything at him to dissuade him from running.

The presidential spokesman said Buhari would declare his intention to seek re-election at a time the opposition could do less damage.

Responding to a question on when Buhari would declare his intention for the 2019 general elections, Adesina answers:

“You know the peculiarity of Nigeria, particularly now. If the president speaks too early, it’s a problemThere is a lot of sabotage in the country. You have also heard so many have said ‘don’t run.’ Because they know that if the president runs, other people should just run away because they don’t have the foggiest chance in hell to beat him.

So, they want to discourage him from running. Now, if he tells you ‘I’m going to run,’ and elections are still one year away, it gives them one year to sabotage the entire country from all fronts – politically, socially, economically – they would throw everything at him just to dissuade him from running.

So, when you know that, why then do you speak early? I think it makes a lot of sense for you then to keep things close to your chest till it is time for you to then say, ‘ok, I’m running’ by which time they can do less damage.”
