Buhari - I Will Stand Down

There was a war of words after President Muhammadu Buhari announced that he will stand down as Nigeria's president in 2023. Supporters of the president saw that as the president's way of dispelling rumors that he plans to give a third term in office.

But for members of the opposition, the statement meant that Buhari felt that he was doing Nigerians a favor by standing down rather than obeying the constitution.

According to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Buhari must step down in 2023 after the expiration of his tenure because it is not in his power to choose whether to remain in office or stand down.

The stamen by the president is timely because of the growing call by some northerners for the president to have a third term in office because of his goodwill towards Nigerians.
