Atiku Meets Gov Candidates

The presidential flag bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has held a closed-door meeting with governorship candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party on Saturday in Abuja.

Atiku, his running mate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, were in attendance at the closed-door meeting that was held at the former vice-president’s residence in Asokoro, Abuja.

The meeting may not be unconnected with the 2023 general elections, strategy and how the party will come out victorious.

In attendance were governorship candidates of Lagos, Ebonyi, Nassarawa, Sokoto, Kaduna, Zamfara, Delta, Plateau, Katsina, Lagos, Yobe, Niger, Kano, Jigawa, Benue, Borno and Kwara states.

Atiku, in a post on his twitter handle, said the meeting was to mobilise Nigerians in displacing the ruling All Progressives Congress at the 2023 general election.

He said, “Today, I met with the governorship candidates of the PDP at my residence in Abuja. It was an opportunity for us to x-ray the state of the nation and how as one, we can mobilise Nigerians for the task of ousting the ruling party and commencing the rebuilding of Nigeria.”
