Tambuwal inaugurates Atiku presidential support group in Sokoto
Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State at the weekend inaugurated Atiku presidential support group in Sokoto, Kebbi and Jigawa states. He urged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members and supporters to work for the victory of the party in the 2023 general elections.
Tambuwal stated that Atiku is out to salvage Nigeria.
According to the Sokoto Governor, “Our return to PDP from the All Progressive Congress together with Alhaji Atiku and others is a commitment to salvage the numerous challenges of our country.
“As such, I congratulate our business communities for coming to participate in this struggle and appeal to you to use all possible means of subsidising prices of commodities in Nigeria.”
Senator Abdul Ningi, National Grand Patron of the group, recalled that it began in 2020 and had contributed money for the purchase of nomination form for Atiku.
“Atiku’s candidacy is for all of us, we should hold the current struggle with full confidence that our country will return to those days when people reap the benefits of good governance,” he said.
The State PDP Chairman, Alhaji Bello Goronyo, had urged the youths to support Atiku, assuring that they will be involved in all aspects of governance and development, if he wins.
“At the state level, our governorship candidate will initiate more ways toward ensuring our business communities are fully involved in sustaining more development,” he said.
On behalf of the inaugurated executives, Alhaji Chika Sarkin-Gishiri pledged their commitment to ensuring the success of PDP at all levels.
“We are convinced that with Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who has a lot of experience in business and public management, our country will excel,” he said.
