General Muhammadu Buhari, 3-time presidential candidate and a major stakeholder in the newly-registered All Progressives Congress, APC on Tuesday said the new party is determined to push out the ruling Peoples Democratic Party come 2015.
“The APC is focus-driven to push the PDP out of power by 2015,” Buhari told members of the Democratic Emancipation Movement who paid him a courtesy visit in Kaduna.
On whether he will be the candidate of APC or not, Buhari said:
“My decision will be tied to the constitution of the APC. If the party chooses me as its candidate, I will contest. If the members do not consider me, I will not contest but I will still support the party. My decision to run for 2015 will solely be that of the party.”
But the PDP, in a sharp reaction to Buhari, said that Buhari is day-dreaming. “There is no way the APC can win the election in 2015. He (Buhari) is day-dreaming,” said the Acting National Publicity Secretary of PDP, Mr. Tony Okeke.
Buhari however stressed that APC would give Nigerians a new lease of life and hope that would make the country rank top in the comity of nations.
He also lauded the nation’s electoral umpire the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for mustering the courage to register APC.
He admitted that in the past, the opposition parties in the country had made mistakes because “we made ourselves vulnerable,” adding that they are now strong enough to defeat the PDP in 2015.
