| Atiku & Tinubu. |
The National Leader of All Progressives Congress and the party’s frontline presidential aspirant, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated Alhaji Atiku Abubakar for his patriotism and commitment to Nigeria’s progress.
This was contained in a statement issued on his behalf by Bayo
Onanuga, Director, Media & Communication of the Tinubu Campaign
Organisation on Sunday.
The statement said Tinubu also congratulated the other contestants for the
orderly and peaceful way they conducted themselves and for pledging to rally
round the winner, in the true spirit of democratic sportsmanship, saying that he
expected the former Vice-president, who was also the 2019 presidential
candidate of the PDP, to be his worthy opponent, by the Grace of God and the
support of APC delegates, in the coming 2023 President election.
The APC National Leader said Atiku’s victory didn’t
come as a surprise to Nigerians because of his vast experience as a statesman
and veteran of many presidential contests from 1993, and welcoming the PDP
candidate to the race, Tinubu added that the coming election should be about
issues that will improve the quality of life of Nigerians; bring peace,
progress, political stability and solve myriad of sociopolitical challenges and
insecurity currently facing the country.
“I welcome the victory of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as
the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the just concluded primary. I
look forward to squaring up with him as a worthy opponent in the coming
election. I have known the former Vice President as a formidable politician and
a patriot who believes in the unity and progress of our dear country.
“As we move further into the election season, I
charge the PDP presidential candidate and all political actors across Party
lines that we should make this election season one that is devoid of
bitterness, rancour and strife.
“We should make our campaigns peaceful and issue
based. Election season should be a festival of ideas that will uplift our
country and improve the living condition of all our people.
“Unfortunately for the PDP, its candidate will be
burdened to explain why Nigerians should give it another opportunity, after
squandering 16 years at the central government, without much to show”.
“Nigerians are yet to forget the national ruin and
mismanagement of our country for 16 years by successive PDP administration and
this bad memory will dog the campaign of the PDP Candidate”
“Nevertheless, I once again congratulate our former
Vice President for his victory in his party’s primary.
