The Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP for the 2023 general election, Atiku Abubakar, has slammed claims that he has dumped his Party, PDP. Atiku described the report as “pure mischief, devoid of truth.” Captured on his verified X page, Atiku said, the claims that he has left PDP were false and from mischief-makers, whom does not mean well for the party.
In his post, Atiku revealed he has been receiving lots of calls since morning from PDP party members, supporters, and concerned Nigerians about a published report alleging that he has left PDP.
The former vice president said, “Let me be unequivocal: this is pure mischief, devoid of truth. I reaffirm my unwavering loyalty to the PDP while advocating the swift merger of opposition parties. The urgency of this consolidation cannot be overstated.”
Atiku also accused President Bola Tinubu, of prioritising his personal ambitions over the nation’s welfare.
He said, “Tinubu’s relentless pursuit of personal agendas at the expense of national governance is glaring. His myopic focus on 2027 betrays a disregard for the pressing needs of the populace. It’s high time he ceased his bumbling escapades and prioritised the welfare of the people”.
The Adamawa born politician revealed that his media team is actively countering the false claim that he was leaving his party where he is one of the founding father.
“My media team is vigorously countering his baseless claims. Let this be a wake-up call to all: the pursuit of power must not overshadow the imperative of effective governance. Together, let us propel Nigeria forward, leaving behind the antics of political charlatans,” Abubakar wrote.
