President Muhammadu Buhari submitted his nomination form at the All Progressives Congress (APC) headquarters in Abuja on Wednesday.
Speaking after submitting the
form, Buhari charged the ruling party to do all its best to ensure that the
ruling party wins in 2019.
“I’m here in person among friends
and colleagues to put my name forward to my party, the All Progressives
Congress, seeking nomination to contest the presidential election next year
2019,” he said.
“Fellow party members, I’m taking
this step with all humility, sense of responsibility and an unquestionable
desire to serve and protect the interest of all Nigerians.
“I’m really grateful to those
dozens of organisations who have joined together and contributed fund to
purchase this form.
“I assure them and the rest of
Nigerians that if nominated and if elected, I shall continue to serve you to
the best of my ability. Let me today appeal to party members not to be
complacent but to prepare, strategise and win 2019 elections.
“We must not allow those who
brought the country to its knees from 1999 to 2015 to take us back.”
A group known as Nigerian
Consolidation Ambassadors Network (NCAN) purchased the forms for the president
and presented it to him at the presidential villa in Abuja on Tuesday.
The group had told the president
that the N45 million raised for the forms was contributed by its three million
members.

we hope that the second term if won will be of great benefits to Nigerian at large, because as it is it seems the president is just a there without a strong authority on some of the cabals,anyways congratulations to him.
