2019: ‘Buhari yet to decide’

Defence Minister, two others to carry out assessment of Boko Haram attack

President Muhammadu Buhari told All progressives Congress (APC) governors last night he had not decided on whether to recontest.

He asked them to give him more time to decide, during a late meeting at the First Lady’s Conference Room at the Presidential Villa, according to Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha, who spoke to reporters.

He said: “We discussed so many issues that affect the nation, our party and Me. President’s ambition to run for 2019 elections.

“It is the desire of the governors that Mr. President should run for this exalted office given his performance in the last two years.  We believe that if he continues, Nigeria will be better for it.

“Anyhow, Mr. President in his usual manner has requested that we give him time and that he will address the national caucus of the party very soon. So we should be full of expectation that Mr. President will make officially known to Nigerians his intentions but we hope that his response will be in line with what the governors are thinking.”
