Do not reward APC for failures in 2023 – Atiku
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 general elections, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has called on Nigerians not to reward the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for failures, saying Nigerians should reject a discredited leadership with no clear agenda at the polls in 2023. Atiku in a statement, lamented: “We’ve never had it this horrible like in APC’s 7 years.”
Atiku reiterated that the PDP is on a rescue mission in the 2023 general elections. He emphasized that the over seven years of the APC government have done more damage to the lives of Nigerians, noting that the PDP government never inflicted hardship on Nigerians as the APC has done.
Atiku in the statement asserted: “Dear compatriot, I have said this before and I am repeating it here: the next year’s election is a national rescue mission. As citizens of this great country, we owe Nigeria a duty to vote in the election and every ballot cast in that election should count as a referendum on the ruling All Progressives Congress.
“My idea about politics is that it is a system of processes that seeks to organise a society towards a common good. But what the APC has done with us as a country in the past 7 years is a direct opposite of that.
“In the 16 years that our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party governed this country, not a single day came with a nightmare that the APC has continued to make us live through.
“Taking Nigeria out of the cesspit that the APC has thrown us into will require a leadership with forthrightness and a clear vision to chart a new direction into a future of prosperity and peace – the very mantra of our anthem. We should not reward the APC for their failures and we should reject a discredited leadership with no clear agenda.
“Dear Atikulator, may I plead with you to do your little part in rescuing this country? Telling other Nigerians in your circle of friends and family to be part of our journey towards rebuilding Nigeria to a country of ONE PEOPLE with ONE FUTURE will do a lot in restoring this great country to its glory.
“Thank you for the support and I wish you a pleasant week ahead.”
