The Chairman of the Reformed All Progressives Congress (R-APC), Engr. Buba Galadima, has given the real reason he has been attacking President Muhammadu Buhari, ahead of the 2019 election.
“I’m criticising him because he’s the President of Nigeria and he’s not doing very well,” he said.
Galadima said he would not have bothered about Buhari if he were “raising cattle in Daura.”
The top politician who spoke in the current edition of The Interview also spoke about the role he played in bringing Buhari and the national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, together to form their current party.
While Buhari was in the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) Tinubu was of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN).
Galadima said, “Buhari was the one against the alliance with Tinubu and I don’t want to say anything. Let Buhari deny what I have said. I was for it and I organised it and wrote a memo that even produced a candidate for the vice presidency, this same Osinbajo.”
Galadima gave a hint that Buhari might have, in fact, pencilled in another running mate candidate in the INEC form that was to have been submitted.
Using a slogan, ‘Anybody But Buhari (ABB)’, Galadima said he was planning to write an open letter to Buhari very soon, adding that the President was a “floored candidate” who will lose his deposit if he contests re-election.
He did not spare the chairman of the APC, Adams Oshiomhole, whom he described as a latter-day Buharist bent on hijacking the ship.
In the same edition, according to a statement issued by the MD/Editor-In-Chief of The Interview, Azu Ishiekwene, the Executive President of Women in Africa, Hafsat Abiola-Costello, said she suspected the autopsy conducted on her father, MKO Abiola, was inconclusive, because “not all poisons can be traced,” lending credence to suspicions that the winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election might have been poisoned in detention.

Abiola-Costello shared the last conversation she had with her mother, Kudirat, before she was murdered, the impact of her parents’ death on the family, and family’s business, among others.
Also in this edition, the wife of the Kaduna State governor, Hajiya Hadiza El-Rufai, talked about her passion and role as wife, mother and first lady, saying, “my husband is too honest.”
