Atiku and Buhari

Former military dictator, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), is set to declare his interest to run for the office of President on October 8, at Eagles Square, Abuja.

This would be Mr Buhari's fourth attempt at the Presidency, having previously contested and lost 3 times in 2003, 2007, and 2011.

Mr Buhari would be the 2nd APC member to officially declare to run for the highest office in the land, after former Vice President Atiku Abubakar launched his bid for Aso Rock on Wednesday.
