Senator Babafemi Ojudu, the Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Political Affairs has said the President Buhari is currently addressing his mind to surmounting myriad of challenges confronting the nation and as such is not yet interested in 2019 presidential election.
Ojudu who spoke to Daily Sun recently when he visited his hometown, Ado-Ekiti, capital city of Ekiti State, said 2019 was still far away for President Buhari to worry himself about it. He also reacted to several other issues for which his principal has been heavily criticised for.
When querried on the popurted endorsement by some Governor, Ojudu Said "There was nothing like the APC governors endorsing Buhari for 2019."
"2019 is still far away, there is 2017, 2018 before 2019. The President will come out at the appropriate time to say whether he wants to run or not."
"As at now, the President is addressing his mind to issues of governance. There are lots of problems confronting the country. If you read the budget, government is paying a lot of attention to power, infrastructure and to fighting anti-corruption and he is busy doing all these not thinking about 2019 for now."
