Just last week, Atiku Abubakar has said it would be a disservice for any politician to talk about preparations for the 2019 general elections when Nigerians are hungry, with no food on their tables.
Abubakar told newsmen in Minna, last week, shortly after he paid a condolence visit to the family of the late former governor of Niger State, Abdulkhadir Abdullahi Kure that no serious politician should think of 2019 now.
Kure died on Sunday, January 8, 2017, in Germany. He was buried in Minna, last Wednesday
Responding to a question on his plan for 2019, the former vice president replied: “The issue at stake now is not about 2019 but, how to make life comfortable for the people. Who is talking about 2019 when there is no food on the table for Nigerians? Whoever is talking about 2019 is being fair to the people.”
Atiku, however, said when the time comes, Nigerians will hear from him, and pointed out that, “for now, no Nigerian will listen to you talk about 2019; that will be disservice to the people who are starving and dying of hunger.”
On the contrary, the former VP during Obasanjo first tenure campaign posters have already defaced some major streets in Kebbi and some northern and southern States.
Atiku, who visited the state at the weekend during the Abdullahi Fodio 1805 book launch at the Emir of Gwandu’s palace, was surrounded by political supporters chanting “Say Atiku Turaki Adamawa for President 2019.”
The former vice president who was the chief launcher at the occasion donated N10 million. He described the book as historical, chronicling the qualities of good leadership since 1805.
