Why i Stopped Backing President Buhari – Peter Obi’s Running Mate, Baba-Ahmed

The Labour Party (LP), presidential running mate Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, has disclosed why he stopped backing President Muhammadu Buhari.

It would be recalled that Baba-Ahmed was elected in 2011 to represent Kaduna North Senatorial District on the platform of the now defunct Congress for Progressives Change (CPC) which also had Buhari as its presidential candidate.

Speaking in Kano over the weekend, the LP vice-presidential candidate revealed that he distanced self from Buhari due to a change in ideology.

According to Baba-Ahmed, the President has lost his principles and bearings.

He also said the Labour Party was making progress in the North, adding that they are trying to ensure the party wins the 2023 election.

He said: “Over time, President Buhari lost his principles and bearings, the situation made it difficult for allies like myself to abide by his political philosophy and ideas.”
