The National Chairman of the Social Democratic
Party (SDP), Olu Falae, has called on all Nigerians that all hands must be on
deck to ensure that President Muhammadu Buhari is not re-elected.
Falae, a former Secretary to the Government of the
Federation (SGF), stated this in Akure, the Ondo State capital, on Thursday when the wife
of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mrs. Titi
Abubakar, visited the leaders of the pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation,
Afenifere, at the residence of Pa Reuben Fasoranti in Akure.
He declared that the country was in need of a good
leadership to take the country of the current situation.
According to
him, "We have to find ways to do it. This government must not come back
for the sake of us and the man (Buhari ).
"He does not have the clue of what is going on
again, and I don't think he is well. He should just go home and rest. Some
characters are hiding behind him to do evil.
"I wish him (Atiku) well, as we are on the
same page. We are aiming at the same
result, and no one wants this government to come back because it has failed.
"Things that had not been happening before are
now happening in the country. Herdsmen now kidnap people like the way eagle
picks chickens in Yorubaland.
"You have to talk to your (Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) leaders in the field that we must cooperate so that we can get the
right result. I want to assure you that we are on the same page, and we want
the same result for this country. The reign of terror in this land must
stop."
In his remarks, the Afenifere leader, Fasoranti,
reiterated that the Afenifere would support any candidate that would
restructure Nigeria.
He added: "Our position in Afenifere is to
support any candidate that would restructure Nigeria because things are not
moving forward in the country because we want the country to move
forward."
While responding, Mrs. Atiku, who expressed
appreciation to the leaders of Afenifere for receiving her, solicited their support
for her husband to become the next president of the country.
"I want to assure you that my husband would
not disappoint the Yoruba people and the country in general.
"He (Atiku) had said he would restructure the
country, and I know he would do it."
