Rabiu Kwankwaso, a chieftain of the APC who is increasingly becoming estranged from the ruling party, has declared that President Muhammadu Buhari will be defeated in 2019 presidential election. Premium Times reports that Kwankwaso on Saturday, June 30, told a political columnist, Dele Momodu.
He said: “I’m a free man now and available to try my luck elsewhere but I know that PDP is the biggest party and as long as they follow democratic principle, Buhari will easily be defeated, but if they handpick and force any candidate on the party, they will fail"

“PDP needs someone from the three states, Kano, Katsina and Kaduna to win the next election. That’s where the votes are. It would be difficult to win if they pick someone from any other zone.”
Kwankwaso said he was set to join the PDP, but even then the party would also run into trouble if internal democratic guidelines are not followed in the award of its 2019 presidential ticket.
He said: “I can guarantee them that I will beat Buhari if given the chance"
