Northern Elders Endorse Buhari
A faction of the northern elder's forum, Kungiyar Dattijan Arewa Initiative, KADAI, led by Retired General Paul Tarfa has dissociated itself from the endorsement of former vice president Atiku Abubakar by the Ango Abdullahi-led northern elders forum as its presidential candidate for the 2019 election.
Paul Tarfa at a briefing, declared its endorsement of president Muhammad Buhari as its presidential candidate in the 2019 elections said, two brothers could have a reason to disagree.
The elders, however, advised politicians to desist from making unguarded statements, while referring to the comments by the Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufai on possible interference in the elections by election observers.
Less than a week ago, the northern elder's forum, the PAN-Niger Delta forum, the middle belt forum, Afenifere and Ohaneze Ndigbo had endorsed the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar as their preferred choice for president.
