Press Statement
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC)
says the mammoth crowd of supporters that received PDP’s Presidential
Candidate, Atiku Abubakar, at the North-West Presidential zonal rally in
Sokoto, Sokoto State, is a clear demonstration that Nigerians, across
the board, have reached a consensus to vote Atiku in as the next
president of our country.
The campaign council appreciates and commends the courage and show of
patriotism by the people of the North- West in rejecting President
Buhari and sectional politics to support Atiku Abubakar, in keeping with
the collective quest to unify our nation and revamp our ailing economy.
Atiku Abubakar’s acceptance by the North-West establishes the common
feeling among Nigerians that he embodies a practical solution to the
myriad of problems brought upon our nation by Muhammadu Buhari’s
incompetent, divisive, repressive and insensitive administration.
The massive reception expresses the confidence of the North-West in
Atiku Abubakar’s proven pro-poor stance; his standing affinity with the
down-trodden and his demonstrated competence, capacity and political
will to revamp our economy, end starvation, sectional acrimony, human
rights abuse and humongous corruption, which the Buhari administration
has unleashed on our nation in the last three and half years.
The PDP campaign council therefore, urges the people of the North-West
and Nigerians in general, to continue to stand in unity in their
resolution to vote for Atiku Abubakar as the next President and free
our nation from the clutches of his misrule.
