The Accord Party (AP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo state have advised President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) to prepare for defeat in 2019.
They declared thiswhile reacting to Buhari’s declaration to seek a second term in office in 2019.
The both parties stated this while speaking with NAN, adding that Buhari’s announcement of his plan to to seek re-election had brightened the chances of their parties.
Mr Wasiu Emiola who is the Secretary of PDPin the state, said that President Buhari’s declaration had further made it easier for the PDP to defeat APC in the 2019 presidential election.
Emiola said the APC led Federal government had lost its credibility due to its “poor performance” in the last three years.
He alleged that APC government was characterised by nepotism, adding that the anti corruption war of the Buhari administration was below the expectations of Nigerians.
”President Buhari’s re-election bid will not get the support of the masses as against what it was in 2015.” Emiola predicted.
On his part, Mr John Igbinsola, the state Secretary of Accord party, described President Buhari as a joker.
Igbinsola claimed some cabals were pushing the president to re-contest because of their selfish interest.
”President Buhari is acting the scripts of certain politicians that want to further enslave the masses through anti-people policies.
”But Accord party will present credible presidential candidate that will wrest power from the APC government, come 2019,” he said.
