All Political Groups in Nigeria Dump Buhari, Endorse Atiku, As the Future President Breaks Down in Tears

Atiku Abubakar, the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has said that he will promote an inclusive government, if elected as Nigeria’s next President.

Atiku said this on Sunday, while reacting to his endorsement by Leaders of five top socio-cultural organisations in the country, on Sunday.

The organisations, the Pan Niger Delta Forum, PANDEF, Northern Elders Forum, NEF, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Afenifere, and Middle Belt Forum, MBF, said that Atiku has shown that he will restructure the country, if given the mandate.

Reacting shortly after, Atiku said that the endorsement is “a loud statement that there is hope for our country”.

“I am moved to tears that in the midst of deep divisions and deliberate use of instrumentalities of State, to set our people against themselves in the last three and a half years, responsible and respected Leaders across Nigeria, have agreed to come together for the purpose of endorsing my candidature for the February 16, 2019 Presidential election”, he said in a statement.

“Today, we put aside all our prejudices to elect a President with religion and ethnicity playing no role in our elections.”

The former Vice President, added that he is buoyed to lead a pan-Nigerian team if elected, and that he has been chosen to unite our people, “and exactly that I will”.

“I will run a properly federated Nigeria through constitutional reforms, to bring out the best from ALL sections of Nigeria, to make Nigeria work again, like in the past when the Saudi Royal family came to Nigeria to access Medicare”, he said.

“We will promote an inclusive Nigeria, based on productivity that every section of Nigeria will bring out the best under their soil, and in their brain to make Nigeria assume its position in Africa and the global community.

“It would be 100 percent for every section of Nigeria, as I would not understand any arithmetic outside that.”
