Ahead of the 2019 presidential election, a group, Njiko-Igbo Canada, has said that President Muhammed Buhari had demonstrated endurance and a rare leadership capacity which would guarantee him and the All Progressives Congress (APC) victory in the coming election.
The group, made this known while addressing journalists in Calgary, Canada, on its various activities to draw up support for President Buhari.
The National President of the organisation, Mr. Clement Ezegbe Jr., who said that the organisation which was founded by Dr. Orji Kalu, former Governor of Abia State, has the mandate to ensure victory for Buhari, added that the transformation recorded in some key sectors of the economy showed that Buhari remained the candidate to beat, in spite of the challenges confronting the nation.
Ezegbe Jr., who stated that the organisation’s membership is spread across Canada, Poland , USA, Chile, Switzerland and Brazil to mobilise Nigerians and ensure victory for the President in 2019, added that rival candidates and parties should have a re-think on their positions.
He further urged Nigerians to give President Buhari another opportunity to consolidate on his achievements in key sectors of the nation’s economy.
He said: “God has revealed that there is no rival to Buhari’s second-term bid and that is why we are giving him all our support.
“For any other party to think that they can dislodge Buhari, they must have a rethink. ”I am urging Nigerians to come and support Buhari’s second term bid.”
On the current security challenges, while calling for the understanding and cooperation of all Nigerians, the national president said that the federal government is doing everything within its capacity to ensure the safe release of the over 200 Chibok girls.
