The former national publicity secretary of the invalid New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP), Chukwuemeka Eze, has said a General Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd)/Governor Rotimi Amaechi All Progressive Congress (APC) ticket for the coming presidential election will send President Goodluck Jonathan and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) packing from the Aso Villa.
Eze said that a statement by a presidential assistant, Doyin Okupe, that a Buhari/Amaechi ticket would be a fatal mistake for the APC is wrong, adding that Okupe should mind his own business as he isn’t a shareholder in APC.
According to Eze “the fact remains that if Buhari/Amaechi ticket is a fatal error, then Jonathan/Sambo ticket is not only a disaster but an ectopic pregnancy that must be evacuated to save the life of the mother in this case of our nation.
“Anyone who fails an examination is asked to repeat but when the failure is so dismal, the person is asked to leave, as Nigerians are asking President Goodluck Jonathan and VP Namadi Sambo to leave as they have not only failed woefully but have endangered our nation to the extent that the need of Buhari/Amaechi ticket becomes imperative to save our nation from imminent extinction.
“These explanations notwithstanding, Dr Okupe’s comment is nothing but a sign of fear and cowardice by the presidency, which lives in perpetual fear of Governor Amaechi and has understandably been having nightmares since news filtered out that Amaechi is in strong contention to emerge as Buhari’s running mate.”
Eze, who is the media aide of the Rivers APC chairman, Dr Davies Ikanya, added that a Buhari/Amaechi ticket will save Nigeria from the grasp of PDP.
He said: “With the myth surrounding Buhari combined with the bravery and sagacity of Governor Amaechi, PDP’s days in the Aso Presidential Villa will surely become history by 2015. “It is left to the APC power brokers to give a chance to this union if they are serious about ending the embarrassment that PDP has become in the politics of our nation.”
Both leading parties held their presidential primaries last week.
President Goodluck Jonathan announced Vice President Namadi Sambo as his running mate in the 2015 elections, after having been ratified as the PDP presidential candidate for the February polls.
General Buhari won APC primaries, but the opposition party is still deciding who deserves to be vice-presidential candidate in 2015 presidential elections.
