He said:
“It is terrible how these people brought Satan himself to come and irritate us. They know that even if election is held one million times, Peter Obi cannot win election.
“They know that it is the corrupt cabal that recruited Peter Obi, mobilise him with funds, and they are now playing the script of the cabal that there should be tenure elongation; President Muhammadu Buhari should not hand over.
“They tested the water with tenure elongation, and they failed woefully. That is the sole reason why Obi was recruited.”
He added:
“All those who are thinking that this mandate can be truncated, be deceiving yourself. Because it will not; we only have 10 days to go. On Tinubu’s mandate we stand.”
May 29: Calls for tenure extension for President Buhari
There was a call for a tenure extension for President Muhammadu Buhari. However, the All Progressives Congress (APC) declared that the president would serve out his term and vacate the presidential villa as stipulated by law.
Specifically, the national chairman of the ruling party, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, dismissed concerns about any planned tenure elongation.
Buhari also repeated his resolve to respect the maximum two-term limit in the Nigerian Constitution for the position of president.
President Buhari, a northerner, is expected to hand over to his party member, Tinubu, on May 29. Tinubu is a two-term governor of Lagos state.
