2019 elections: Be prepared to emulate Jonathan when you lose – Ex-APC spokesperson, Frank tells Buhari

Former
Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC,
Comrade Timi Frank, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to emulate former
President, Goodluck Jonathan, and prepare to concede defeat in 2019.
According to
Frank, there is every indication that history will repeat itself in 2019 presidential
election.
In a
statement issued to the Media in Abuja on Wednesday, where he also
congratulated former President Jonathan on his 61st birthday and the launch of
his historic book, Frank said the former President has written his name in gold
for allowing democracy to survive even when he had power to truncate it.
Frank said
the calibre of persons that attended his book launch on Tuesday showed that the
former President is more popular, acceptable and he’s seen as a hero of
democracy.
The
statement urged President Muhammadu Buhari to get a copy of the book and not
only read but turn it to the handout on democratic lecture.
Frank said
most Nigerians, including him, did not value the fresh air ex-President
Jonathan brought to Nigeria until the current administration took over in 2015.
“The change
we brought (which I sincerely regret)has turned to a chain that has destroyed
all the good legacies my older brother, Jonathan left behind.
“Under APC
government today, bloodshed, which Jonathan discouraged is now the order of the
day, Killings and corruption are more pronounced than before.
The former
APC chieftain said from the information available to him, President Buhari was
not ready to hand over if he loses in 2019, “that is why he dragged the military
which is meant to be neutral to attend his ‘Next Level campaign launch.
“Nigerians
will not forget the role Buhari played after the 2011 general elections which
he lost . His undemocratic tendencies engineered the crisis that later claimed
several lives, including some Corps members innocently serving their
fatherland.
“I, therefore
urge the incumbent to prepare his hand-over note, learn shock-absorber tactics
from former President Jonathan should he lose the election in 2019.”
