Press Statement
Atiku: PDP Savours Outpouring of Solidarity, Goodwill From Nigerians
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) notes the spontaneous and widespread
jubilation across Nigeria over our successful Presidential primary,
leading to the emergence of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as PDP Presidential
candidate.
The PDP appreciates the continued outpouring of solidarity, goodwill and
prayers for the party and its Presidential candidate, particularly since
Sunday’s presidential primary in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.
In the last 24 hours, our great party and our Presidential candidate
have been inundated with innumerable solidarity messages by millions of
Nigerians from across all ages, gender,religious, sectional and even
political divides.
The PDP notes, with the highest sense of responsibility, the confidence
Nigerians repose on it as the epicenter for their determination to oust
the irredeemably incompetent, oppressive, reckless, deceptive and
inherently corrupt administration of President Buhari and the
dysfunctional APC.
We also salute other PDP presidential aspirants for their exceptional
display of patriotism and sportsmanship before, during and after the
convention.
Our party particularly appreciates the immediate collapsing of the
campaign structures of other aspirants across the country to boost a
formidable front for our great party ahead of the elections.
Their vigourous campaigns and consultations took the message of the
rebranded PDP to the nooks and crannies of our nation. They not only
rekindled the zeal on the democratic process, but also consolidated the
confidence Nigerians have on the PDP as the vehicle to return our dear
nation to the path of peace, national cohesion and economic prosperity.
Despite the relentless attacks and smear campaign by the sinking
Muhammadu Buhari Presidency and dysfunctional All Progressives Congress
(APC), against our party, particularly to scuttle our presidential
primary, the PDP still emerged a stronger and more united platform ready
for the task ahead.
Today, the PDP, as a repositioned party, has reclaimed its place as the
party with highest demography of genuine followership across the length
and breadth of our country. We are now, more than ever before, poised
for an inevitable victory in the 2019 general elections.
