Presidential candidate of the Action Alliance (AA), Hamza Al-Mustapha, has explained the reason why he wants to become Nigeria’s President in 2023.
He said that his loyalty to Nigeria is the reason he is again running for the position of president come 2023.
Al-Mustapha, Chief Security Officer to late General Sani Abacha, stated this on Friday while featuring on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
“I decided this time around to answer to the calls of many Nigerian elders and younger ones from the North to the South and numerous associates with whom I have worked with, to accept the call and to contest.
“The passion we have for this country is much more in the sense that the challenges we face yesterday and the deep appreciation for where we are today, is for only those who truly care.
“It is that sense of awareness, that commitment driven by the energy of patriotism that brought us to the fore to face politics, ” he asserted.
Al-Mustapha, accused of plotting at least four coups from prison, said he is not in the presidential race for financial gains as some would infer.
Speaking on his preparation to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023, he said, “For the last seven years since I came out of prison, we have been undertaking researches in and out of Nigeria, and our findings are extremely disturbing.
“What every committed Nigerian should do right now is to understand the enormity of the problems facing Nigeria,” the AA presidential candidate opined.
He added that “the new world order is changing and we are not changing, the world is running with the moon and we are not, people are flying with the wind and we are not; time has changed and we remain stagnant.”
