Three ministers in Buhari’s cabinet told me he will never be Nigeria’s President – APC chieftain

A member of the All Progressives Congress,
APC, Board of Trustees, BoT, Olisaemeka
Akamukale yesterday disclosed that President
Muhammadu Buhari made some fundamental
mistakes in his appointments, adding that three
serving ministers had told him that Buhari will
never be president of Nigeria.
Akamukale, who made the disclosure while
fielding questions from journalists at the APC
headquarters, said Buhari needs to, immediately,
roll out practical solutions to the myriad of
problems confronting the country, warning that
many Nigerians were becoming impatient.
While berating the three saboteurs who he did
not name, the APC big shot said, “I agree that it
is painful to see certain persons appointed. I
know three current serving ministers who told
me that Buhari will never be the President of
this country.
“Today, they are benefiting from Buhari
government, but they should be ashamed
because it is only a dog that goes back to its
vomit. I have nothing against them because
people will tell you that after party, it is
government, but they are political jobbers. They
claim that the president went for technocrats,
but the big question is, who is not a technocrat.
“The truth is that most of them are interlopers
because it takes those within the party to
understand where the party is headed. I agree
that Mr President, perhaps, because of what he
met on ground and style of leadership, has not
been forthcoming with the distribution of
leadership.
“There are lots of our members waiting to be
compensated. It is natural all over the world.
However, I am sure these things will soon be
sorted out because we are getting there. I know
we have to be patient but I know that some
people are running out of patience,” he said.
Akamukale continued, “If by 2019, the dream is
cut short by Nigerians, many people you see
today, some who are ministers and others, will
go back, but some of us will still remain. Many
people will go back and look for a new
government to take position. They will tell you
that they are technocrats because they have
nothing to lose.
“If you really ask me, I think Nigerians are
becoming impatient with us because it is now
about two years into this government. So, it is
for Nigerians and not about me or about APC
members. It is for Nigerians to know what this
government will do to benefit them.”
While offering suggestions on what Buhari
should do, he said: “I think the president should
bring on board those who believe in the change
mantra, those who yearned for change, those
who could assist Mr. President in delivering the
dividends of democracy to the masses of this
country, because, at the end of the day, people
that lose or gain are Nigerians. Nigerians voted
for us and there are things they are expecting
from us. Source, Daily post
