Minister of Women Affairs and
Social Development, Aisha Alhassan has alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari
told the All Progressives Congress, APC, before contesting for President in
2015 that he would only seek one term in office.
Speaking on Wednesday, the
Minister, popularly called Mama Taraba said she intend to hold Buhari by his
words that he won’t run for the presidency in 2019.
According to Reuters, Alhassan,
who did not give disclose much, said Buhari made the comments in 2015 to APC
members.
She said, “In 2014/2015 he said
he was going to run for only one time to clean up the mess that the (previous)
PDP government did in Nigeria. And I took him for his word that he is not
contesting in 2019.”
The comment came after a similar
interview with BBC Hausa, where Alhassan said she would support former Vice
President, Atiku Abubakar in 2019 should Buhari opt to contest.
Alhassan explained that her
choice of Abubakar was predicated on the fact that the former Vice President is
her “godfather.”
