| Atiku in Sokoto |
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday said
the “mammoth crowd of supporters” that received its presidential candidate,
Atiku Abubakar at the North-West Presidential zonal rally in Sokoto State was
an indication that President Muhammadu Buhari has been rejected by Nigerians.
PDP
said the crowd was a clear demonstration that “Nigerians, across the board,
have reached a consensus to vote Atiku in as the next president of our
country.”
In
a statement by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, PDP said people of the
North West showed patriotism by rejecting Buhari.
The
statement reads, “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.
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.
“We,
therefore, urge 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.”
