2023: No tear this time as group buys N40m form for Atiku
The North East Business Forum has bought a nomination form for the former Vice President and PDP veteran presidential wannabe Atiku Abubakar ahead of the party primary.
On expressing interest for the 2019 primary contest in 2019, Atiku got the form courtesy of some young fans of his.
Atiku said the gesture then made him shed tears.
Rather than shed tears on Friday when the North East Business Forum bought him the N40m form, Atiku lashed out.
“Our unity is threatened, our economy is in the worst state of affairs, since the inception of this country, our security is a disaster, these are very serious challenges.
“These are challenges that require the unity of everybody in this country.”
Presenting the forms to Atiku in Abuja, the chairman of the forum, Alhaji Dalhatu Funakaya, said they had pleaded with Atiku in November last year in Gombe State to join the presidential race and promised to foot the bill for his nomination form.
“We have fulfilled our side of the bargain and hope the former vice president will formally declare to contest the 2023 presidential election.”
