Noting that the organization should reflect in the voting, Atiku said:

“Let us hope and pray that the way that this convention has been organized will be the way that the voting will be organized.

This convention is unique it is the last in the era of the APC. It is unique that it is going to give our party the opportunity to take over the government at the federal level and in the states.

As an elder-statesman, Atiku used the opportunity to appeal for unity, at the convention, saying:

“I want to appeal for unity no matter the sabotage, the discrimination that may be meted out to you. The most important thing is to ensure that our party wins in the forthcoming election.

I am distressed that a number of our party officials have felt excluded in the processes that have taken place in many states of the country. I want to appeal to them to bear that no condition is permanent.”
