Following calls from the two former military head of States asking President Muhammadu Buhari not to contest for a second term.
Senior Special Assistant to the president  on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, has said that his principal will defeat any of the former presidents should in case they attempt to contest against him in 2019.

Recalled, Olusegun Obasanjo and General Ibrahim Babangida in their recent media outings told Buhari not to stand for re-election in 2019.


Reacting to their calls, Shehu has said that rather than asking Buhari not to contest in 2019, the former leaders should come out and contest against Buhari next year.

“My response to them is that if they like they can come and contest against President Buhari. He will defeat them, all of them,” he told Ben TV in an interview.

He said;

“I am not saying it is perfectly in order but they are just politicizing these issues. This is a government that has removed this country from the shame of food importation, every state of the country now is into rice production, and we are feeding not only Nigeria but West Africa.

“And the government is working on having respectable prices for food items, food inflation is coming down grossly. Everyone complaining of hunger should go and work. And you know that this is the only government that has introduced social investment schemes, we pay out now for the poorest of the poor, the least they will get is N5,000.and a lot of these job that are being created are from loans with little or no interest from the central bank, Bank of industry, Banks of Agriculture, Development Bank and the rest.
“So, there is a lot going for people who really want to go out there to work especially in Agriculture.”
