Says ‘a true democrat taking over’
The emergence of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as the presidential flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been described as a true democrat taking over governance in 2023, saying it will be a landslide victory for the party.

The Lagos State chapter of the PDP made the declaration in a congratulatory message to Atiku, who was elected as the party’s presidential candidate.

According to Lagos PDP, Atiku is “the brightest of stars in Nigeria today when it comes to true democracy.”

In the message, signed by the Publicity Secretary, Hakeem Amode, the Lagos PDP stated: “Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s emergence as the party’s presidential candidate has put a seal on our readiness to take back power at the centre.

“It’s not just taking power for the sake of it, but with the sole purpose of rescuing Nigerians and putting the country back on the part of welfare-based governance that puts the people first.

“We congratulate Atiku and state categorically that there’s been no better time to have him as president than now.

“He’s the best combination of a true democrat and administrator.

“He has also been in government. So, this is about service, unlike those that have grabbed power for over seven years with no plan or path. We have a philosophy that puts the people first and the agenda to execute people-based policies.

“Once again, congratulations, Turaki Adamawa. You’re ready. The party is ready and Nigerians are ready.”
