2019 Presidential Election: Corruption Fights Back To Return To Power

The most corrupt President and Vice President in the political history of Nigeria want to stop the incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari from reopening the files on their looting of the national treasury; misappropriations of revenue allocations for pensions; round tripping used for tax evasion and money laundering; illegal sales of NITEL, shutting down of Nigeria Airways and other corrupt practises from 1999 to 2007. They will also be investigated for the Odi Massacre carried out on November 20, 1999, by the Nigerian military on the predominantly Ijaw town of Odi in Bayelsa State. The attack came in the context of an ongoing conflict in the Niger Delta over indigenous rights to oil resources and environmental protection.
People generally say that the massacre was ordered by the regime of former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo and Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

#NigeriaDecides2019

Two men fighting the fight of their lives; what I predict is their last fight.
76 year old vs. 72 year old.
Pro poor vs. pro rich.
Hard core Muslim vs. Soft core Muslim.
Image of incorruptibility vs. Image of corruptibility.
Pro blood and civil unrest vs. Pro power and general protest.
Less internal divide amongst his powersharers vs. major internal divide amongst his powetsharers.
Pro blood loyalists willing to die for him vs. Pro verbal loyalists willing to run away from him and from bloodshed.
In the face of these oppositional standings real or near real,  I hypothesize or predict that Abubakar not Buhari will miss the presidential mark.
