“And again, Baba Buhari did not tell us that he is going to run in 2019,” she said.
“Let me tell you today that if Baba said he is going to contest in 2019, I swear to Allah, I will go before him and kneel and tell him that ‘Baba I am grateful for the opportunity you gave me to serve your government as a minister.
“But Baba just like you know I will support only Atiku because he is my godfather. If Atiku said he is going to contest.”
In a chat in Abuja, Ibe said, “There’s really nothing to say. It’s like stating the obvious”.

“Let me tell you, in the federal cabinet, other ministers have their views; they have people they support.
“People forget APC is coalition and when people from different background unite, you cannot expect stakeholders to forget their root.
“What the Minister did was an act of courage and we thank and commend her. We advise those who share similar opinion to also speak out.”
