| Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. |
Our
attention has been drawn to a statement circulating in a section of the media,
to the effect that Atiku Abubakar, Presidential candidate of PDP in the 2019
presidential election and Vice President of Nigeria, 1999-2007 plans to lead a
street protest in the event that the election petition tribunal rules against
his him and his party on the issue of a server for the Independent National
Electoral Commission.
I wish to emphatically state that such a
statement did not emanate from Atiku Abubakar or his privies. It is the work of
mischief makers who want to mar his spotless pro-democratic record and lay the
ground work for their threatened actions against him on false charges of being
a threat to national security.
For the avoidance of doubt, Atiku Abubakar
believes in the Rule of Law and in the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
In his almost four decades in politics, he has never taken action or spoken
words against democracy and will not start now.
Atiku Abubakar and his team have
confidence in God and thus call on those bent on mischief to have the fear of
God and retrace their steps. Democracy has come to stay in Nigeria. The culture
of fear being created now cannot rein in our democracy. Nigeria and Nigerians
have a consistent history of outlasting tyranny and will continue to do so by
the grace of God.
