Mixed reactions have continued to trail the Senate president
Bukola Saraki's plan to run against President Muhammadu Buhari during the 2019
general elections.
Infoprations’ analysis shows that while some Nigerians could not
hide their grievances over Saraki's intention to run against President Buhari
in 2019, others believe it is his constitutional rights to contest for any post
in Nigeria, including that of president.
In his comment, a Facebook user, Nofiu Adio Olalekan, who said he
knew from the outset that Saraki would run against Buhari in 2019, added that
the Senate president could not stop the president re-election next year.
He said: "I Knew this from outset that is why he used to look
Baba Buhari anyhow on many occasion, either u like it or not Buhari till
2023."
Another Facebook user, Omolola Gbenga, said: "Saraki is the
best for the job, but for PDP to win they should give it to Hausa man from
either northwest or northeast because they would not vote for Saraki. But
Saraki is the best candidate for president."
Ikolo Ola, another Facebook user, challenged Saraki to mention any
change he made in his Kwara state as the governor for eight years and the
Senate president for three years.
"The change you couldn't make in your 8 yrs as Kwara governor
in the state 3yrs as a Senate president. My advice: people pushing you are
automatically leading you to your early grave wake up", he said.
Tunji Davies said: "That will be very interesting as all of
them will know their electoral values against Buhari. I love it as many
overrated politicians will know their real worth next year at the polls. Prince
Cool Adewodu remarked: "That is finally end of road for Saraki and PDP,
parties of satanic looters group.
In his reaction, Moses Ejah, said: "Uncle Saraki....wait wait
I say wait.We know you are smart but you contest against Buhari you will fail
and lose your Senate seat... we like you in Senate till Baba finishes another
4yrs."
Kenechukwu Victor said: "Obviously he has the support of
north central, south-south and south-east. The southern parts of northwest
likes him, southern part of northeast likes him. But, south west is not."
Owolabi Muyiwa Alexander reacted: "Trouble is on the way, if
it happens to be. Can this guy tell us what he has done and done perfectly for
his years in PDP before crossing to APC? Buhari might not be too good but this
guy I don't trust him."
In his comment, another Facebook user, Adesuyi Oluwaseun Opeyemi,
said: "I am not interested in the 2019 elections because, I am very sure
Buhari will win, only if he contests. I am only interested in PDP primaries and
how PDP would be shared or scattered after the primaries, by those selfish
gangs.
"I am watching out for these teams: Obasanjo Vs Atiku,
Obasanjo Vs Fayose, Atiku Vs Saraki, Saraki Vs Tambuwa and others. There will
always be part 2."
Louis Chieke said: "If PDP gives Saraki presidential ticket,
believe me, their will be more defection from APC to PDP." In his tweet,
Mr A @abumunara described Saraki's plan to contest against Buhari as infantile.
He tweeted: "Infantile running. President of Kwara Central."
Senate president, Bukola Saraki, is said to be considering to run against
President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 general elections.
According to Bloomberg, Saraki said in an interview at his
residence in Abuja: "I am consulting and actively considering it. I
believe I can make the change. “The PDP has learnt its lesson from the loss in
2015, and I think unfortunately the APC did not learn from their victory."
