Former Nigeria’s vice president Atiku Abubakar has been elected as the People’s Democratic Party’s presidential candidate in the next general elections.
The former vice president wins the election with 1, 532 votes with the governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, coming a distant second with 693 votes.
The ever vocal Nigerians on Twitter have reacted to Atiku’s win as the opposition party flagbearer.
On Atiku.
We are stuck btw Devil & Deep Blue Sea
APC shouldn’t tell us Atiku is corrupt – APC itself is full of thieves
PDP shouldn’t tell us Atiku is fresh air – He was part of our problems
Let’s stick to the real issues – contributions & capacity.
Don’t be unfortunate pls

This one, Atiku showed Wike that there is a difference between a man that learnt politics from Shehu Yar’Adua and one that threatens his party and its big wigs on national TV. Ano jati jati. Ino kina kina.

Atiku and Buhari should debate their education and health policies on live TV. No expo. No help from aides. Man on man.

Atiku is the only Presidential aspirant in the PDP that didn’t visit Obasanjo for blessings. Maybe Obasanjo is overrated at the moment.

If Atiku wins the presidency in 2019.
He might completely send,
Obasanjo and Tinubu into political irrelevance…
Meaning..Obasanjo can’t decide who becomes king any longer..
And Tinubu can’t dream of a 2023 presidency anymore..

Atiku deserves some respect. He’s managed to stay relevant and powerful after all these years despite his corruption and Obasanjo baggages. I always admire great strategists and Atiku has proven himself one.
