God Will Defeat Buhari Govt In 2019, Says Obasanjo

Olusegun Obasanjo

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said God who helped Nigeria against the dreaded government of late Gen. Sani Abacha will come to the country’s aid in 2019 elections.

He said this on Monday at a town hall meeting in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital, where the Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CNM) members converged.

The former President also called on youths and all Nigerians not to be tired because they have a lot of work to do to effect change of government through the ballot.

Obasanjo said, “Some people believe that those that are in position, whether they are doing well or not, they must continue to be there. But when we say they must not only be there, they will want to fight back.

“They will hold many things to wreak havoc, but everybody must be prepared. It will not be easy to wrest powers from them. If you think it will be easy to liberate Nigeria, you are deceiving yourself.

“But the God that did it yesterday will do it again today. Remember a particular leader who had a desire to transmit from military uniform to elected president.

“But our God is wonderful. God laughed. Now, God is laughing. When the time came, God revealed that He’s God. He is the omnipotent, omnipresent and eternal, who can do all things and who can make all things possible. But if we are leaving things to God, we have to do our own side.

“The work has started. Some people may be laughing at you and make jest of you, don’t be bothered with that. Listen, permanent voter’s cards (PVCs) are your instruments. If you have not collected yours, go and collect it.”
