ELECTORAL FACT 1: Atiku Abubakar is Afraid of the Grassroots Movement of President Buhari

ELECTORAL FACT 1:

Majority of Nigerian voters are not on the internet. They are the supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari in the rural areas. And they have their PVCs unlike many of the supporters of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar making noise on Nairaland, Facebook, Twitter and other social media network sites; hiding behind monikers with multiple accounts. And guess what? The most active of them paid by the opposition are not even up 200, because the bankrupt former ruling party, People's Democratic Party (PDP) cannot afford  more than that and the PDP is still owing unpaid salaries of many of their workers since 2015. Moreover, their conduits for embezzlements of public funds by misappropriations of allocations for federal government offices and state governments have been blocked.
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is almost bankrupt and is afraid of the reelection of President Buhari, because that will worsen his predicaments.

Taking Nigeria To The Next Level - By President Muhammadu Buhari

Four years ago, we promised Nigerians real change – in what we do and how we do it. Nigerians sent a clear message in the last election, and our platform offered a new, ambitious plan for a secure, prosperous and corruption-free country. We have worked hard to fulfil our promises – and while the road may have been difficult, over the last three and a half years, we have laid the foundations for a strong, stable and prosperous country for the majority of our people.

Foundational work is not often visible, neither is it glamorous – but it is vital to achieving the kind of country we desire. Judging by the prior depth of decay, deterioration and disrepair that Nigeria had sunken into, we are certain that these past few years have put us in good stead to trudge on the Next Level of building an even stronger nation for our people.

It is My National Duty To Defend and Support President Muhammadu Buhari

My Nigerians Report Online was the first Nigerian news media to endorse His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR for President in the 2015 presidential election and it cost me a multimillion naira patronage of the then national ruling party, People's Democratic Party (PDP) and threats to my life. My in-laws in Buguma of Rivers State were attacked and murdered for supporting the All Progressives Congress (APC). These hired killers were cosponsored by those empowered by the former President, Mr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and his wife, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, whose mother was even my father's cousin from the same village in Abia State where the best mansion was built by Mrs. Jonathan.
I also have relations in every state in the Niger Delta. So, I know the PDP 100% more than majority of the ignoramuses insulting and swearing at President Buhari without any justification. I am royalty both in Abia state and Rivers state where my nephews and nieces are very comfortable sons and daughters of the prominent William-West Family in Buguma and my brother in-law and the presidential candidate of the PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar were senior colleagues in the Nigeria Customs Service. I am the son of a grea man who was a brave Nigerian soldier and was a friend of Major-General David Akpode Ejoor and HRH Amayanabo (King) of Twon-Brass, Bayelsa, Alfred Papapreye Diete-Spiff, the first Military Governor of Rivers State.
If not for Christianity, I would have been a foreign intelligence agent and assassin. I once worked for the Alhaji Bamanga Tukur's presidential campaign in my 20s.

I have no apologies or regrets for endorsing and supporting President Buhari. It is my national duty to defend him.
