Bukola Saraki, Senate President, has predicted that Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria’s President, will not attend the presidential debate billed to hold January 19.
The Senate President, Bukola Saraki stated this at an event on Thursday while speaking to some Civil Society Organisations in Abuja.
Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is also scheduled to address the CSOs at the event.
“I am told that one has debated and you already know the answer to that debate. On the second one, I am very sure he is not going to debate. So how do you assess somebody who is not ready to tell you what he is going to do?” the top lawmaker queried.
Saraki said gone are the days where presidential candidates are not properly scrutinized before being elected.
“Those days are gone, my good people. The future of this country, a country that leads the continent that is not the example we want to set for this continent.
“The whole world is going in a direction, if you are seeking a position, you must come and tell people what you want to do, you must sit down and they will ask you questions and that is why we are here.
“Today is your day, we will sit down and take questions. I hope at the end of this exercise, you will stand up and say yes, this is the team that will secure Nigeria; this is the team that will unite Nigeria; this is the team that will fight the poverty in town and bring a bright future,” he said.
