Nigeria’s First Lady, Patience Jonathan, has likened the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, to a crawling baby that has nothing to offer the nation.
She made the remark at the Benue State edition of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Women Campaign Rally held at the IBB Square, Makurdi, on Friday.
According to Mrs Jonathan, “a child that is still crawling at age 72 does not have anything new to offer the people of Nigeria”.
Patience Jonathan described the APC as a sinking ship that would drown and remain under forever.
She also lambasted Buhari and the APC over plans to phase out the office of the First Lady.
The President’s wife, who appreciated the women of Benue State for their support, said that she perceived and have seen it that Benue was PDP.
Earlier, the state Governor, Gabriel Suswam, described President Goodluck Jonathan as a true democrat, adding that Nigeria “must be ruled by democrats.”
Noting that the future of the nation was guaranteed under Jonathan, the state governor said: “Victory will be ours on 28 March 2015.”
He stressed that the nation was in need of leaders who could think straight; leaders the people could count on and whose word was bond.
