The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) has welcomed the finding by a United States congressional body that President Muhammadu Buhari may emerge winner of the 2019 poll.

In a statement by its chairman, Niyi Akinsiju, and Secretary, Cassidy Madueke, the BMO described the United States Initiative for Peace (USIP) position as scientific and credible.

USIP position as scientific and credible.“We are impressed that the United States Initiative for Peace (USIP) said the report is based on its interactions with Nigerians from different sectors and that ‘though many Nigerians feel that the current administration has not fully met their aspirations, this is not likely to cost the All Progressive Congress (APC) government its hold on power’.

The group called on the Nigerian electorate to “shine their eyes on who to believe between the democratic body and commercial purveyors of falsehood.” In a widely circulated report, the USIP, a body set up by the U.S. Congress, had stated, among others, that Buhari is likely to emerge victorious in the 2019 presidential election.
