The candidate of the All Progressives Congress
in the ongoing Bauchi South Senatorial District bye-election, Lawal Gumau, has
revealed his intention of making Muhammadu Buhari president for the rest of his
life, Punch Newspaper reports.
He made the revelation at the closing of his
campaign in Bauchi on Thursday, where he said he will work towards amendment of
the constitution to make Mr Buhari remain in power till he dies.
Mr Gumau, who currently represents Toro Federal
Constituency in the House of Representatives, said his only mandate for
aspiring to go to the Senate is to protect Mr Buhari’s interest.
“I want you to know that the mandate that will
be given to me on Saturday is to go and protect Buhari’s interest in the
Senate,” he said.
“This is the only mandate that I will be going
to the Senate with, having fulfilled every other mandate to the best of my
ability while in the House of Representatives for eight years.
“By God’s grace, we will amend Nigeria’s
constitution to allow Buhari to be president for the remaining years of his
life. He will only cease to be president when God takes his life.
