PDP has given up on 2019— Keyamo

The spokesperson for President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election campaign, Festus Keyamo (SAN), has claimed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has given up on winning the 2019 general elections, having realised that Buhari was on course to a landslide victory.

Keyamo made this known on Tuesday via his twitter handle.

According to him, “Whilst we’ve consistently made clear projections on how PMB would win in a landslide in 2019, the response of the opposition has always been full of ‘sound & fury, signifying nothing’.

“They keep parroting the phrase ‘Nigerians have rejected Buhari!’ They run away from the figures.

“We take nothing for granted, but my hunch is d main opposition has given up on 2019, hence the confused reactions to their recent loses (‘we will boycott’ or ‘no we will match their rigging’ etc.). It’s like a boxer, knocked down & dazed but groping to get up when d fight is over”.

This boast is similar to an earlier boast by President Buhari in which he said only those lacking in perception would doubt his imminent victory in 2019.
