2019: Middle Belt denounce Atiku, stick to Olawepo-Hashim

A leader of the Middle Belt Forum, Air Commodore Dan Suleiman (Rtd) has said that the Forum will stick to its earlier endorsement of the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Trust (PT) for the 2019 election, Mr. GBENGA Olawepo-Hashim.

Suleiman, who stated this at a meeting with of the Forum in Abuja said that he and a number of the Forum's were not carried along in the adoption of former Vice President and the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (Pdp) in the February 16 election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar by the ethnic Nationality groups cutting across the North and South.

The Pan Yoruba socio political organisation, Afenifere, Northern Elders Forum (NEF), the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the Pan- Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) and the Middle Belt Forum had on Sunday announced the adoption of Atiku Abubakar as candidate of the regions in the February 16 election.

But Dan Suleiman, who addressed of the MIDDLE Belt Forum in Abuja, said that the majority of the were not carried along before the announcement. He stated that the region was part of a broad based approach towards arriving at a common candidate but that the Middle Belt expected to be carried along before the other regions announced their adoption.

He added that since the emergence of Atiku Abubakar as candidate of the PDP in October, a number of the ethnic nationality groups have been doing things differently. "We in the Middle Belt shortlisted three candidates, GBENGA Olawopo- Hashim, Dr. John Dara and Dr. Obadiah Malafia. We asked the three of them to meet and pick a single candidate, but they could not arrive at a single candidate. After that they asked you to help them pick a single candidate and we picked Gbenga Olawepo Hashim here. "If we will change that, the other regions should talk to us, " he said adding that the Middle belt expect from the other regions, having ed the causes of the South West and other groups in the past.

According to him, since Atiku knows that he is a leader of the Middle Belt and he has not told him why the region should vote for him, he will abide by the earlier decision to adopt olawepo- Hashim as candidate of the Middle Belt Forum.

Some of the youth leaders at the meeting expressed divergent views about the adoption of Atiku Abubakar as the preferred candidate of the zone. While some of them edged to stick to Olawepo, some expressed the desire to vote Atiku.

OLAWEPO-Hashim who also attended the meeting also expressed shock that some leaders of the Middle Belt Forums who attended the enlarged meeting where Atiku was adopted failed to defend the choice earlier made by the Middle Belt Forum. He said that despite moves to force him out of the race, he will continue to push for his election in a bid to liberate the Middle Belt. He told the gathering that being a "self funded" candidate, he has faced series of attacks by certain forces but insisted he would keep the flag flying till the election day.

" Even though our collective resolve remains anybody but Buhari, we will not sell out your mandate, we will continue to push for the election as forcefully as we can and God willing victory is assured," he said.

It takes fake person to know other fake.... Like Arewa Consultative Forum(AYF), Middle Belt and Afenifere denouncing Atiku. Nobody want to associate with a certified thief

Is anyone surprised PDP have been crying wolf when there's none? Well, the reason is not far-fetched, PDP have been deprived access to our treasury they so much love to plunder for 4years now, that's what they live for, nothing more. It's like trying to wean a baby off breastmilk, the baby will cry at every little thing, that's what the criminal elements in PDP have been doing. PDP risks going into extinction if they lose again this year because Wike will no longer bankroll the party given the treatment meted out to his candidate (Tambuwal) at the party primaries, so they're doing everything possible to win this election, or sink the whole country if they lose out; I'm miffed that El-Rufai played into their hands with his unguarded statement, little wonder they quickly issued a threat to withdraw from the peace pact Atiku grudgingly signed earlier, they never wanted any peace ab initio. It's a battle to save the party from going extinct, and not a battle to save Nigeria as they want gullible minds to believe.
Buhari may be showing signs of age but it's never enough reason to let PDP come anywhere near our treasury again. A vote for PDP is a vote for retrogression, vote wisely my people

IT IS FINISHED FOR ATIKU AND PDP PATAPATA

In all honesty, Hashim appears quite a few yard more qualified than the front runners.

I pity the gullible ones who thinks Buhari or Atiku has all the answers.

I sorry for middle bet.They should be wise this time. Atiku is a better option from my own view. We need a new person

Lol. Which middle belt?

He is a Lone Voice crying in the wilderness.

Sent by BMC media team so he has no anointing.

After the voting Olawepo Hashim will garner about 3000 votes then he will forever hold his peace. Lol

BMC are silly for thinking that this fellow can divide Atiku's votes
