PDP, others can't unseat APC from power in 2023

The Sun reports that he said no other party can displace APC from power in 2023 because of the support President Muhammadu Buhari enjoins across the country.

Shehu noted

“The president enjoys unshakable support not only in his hometown but also across the country and it is enough for the opposition to admit that the President matters a lot for the ruling party and Nigerians in general, again he constitutes a political obstacle they cannot dismantle come 2023.
“The masses will never abandon President Buhari’s leadership and the APC. I assure you that in 2023, the masses will be waiting for the president to show the way in courtesy of what he has been building for the country in terms of infrastructure and the wellbeing of young people in the country. Nobody will take the risk by inviting another party to come and take over in 2023."
