Tinubu Lauds Atiku On PDP Victory, Sends Warning Shots

All Progressive Congress, APC presidential aspirant, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has congratulated former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on his emergence as the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP even as he sent warning shots on the burdens he said the PDP candidate is carrying.

Tinubu commended the former Vice President for his patriotism and commitment to Nigeria’s progress.

He also congratulated the other contestants for the orderly and peaceful way they conducted themselves and for pledging to support the selected candidate in the forthcoming general elections.

According to Tinubu, the former Vice-president, who was also the 2019 presidential candidate of the PDP, would be his worthy opponent in the 2023 presidential election.

While welcoming the PDP candidate to the race, Tinubu added that the coming election should be about issues that will improve the quality of life of Nigerians; bring peace, progress, and political stability and solve myriad of sociopolitical challenges and insecurity currently facing the country.

In his words: , “I welcome the victory of Alhaji Atiku Abubakah as the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the just concluded primary. I look forward to squaring up with him as a worthy opponent in the coming election. I have known the former Vice President as a formidable politician and a patriot who believes in the unity and progress of our dear country.

“As we move further into the election season, I charge the PDP presidential candidate and all political actors across party lines that we should make this election season one that is devoid of bitterness, rancour and strife.

“We should make our campaigns peaceful and issue-based. Election season should be a festival of ideas that will uplift our country and improve the living condition of all our people.

“Unfortunately for the PDP, its candidate will be burdened to explain why Nigerians should give it another opportunity, after squandering 16 years at the central government, without much to show.

“Nigerians are yet to forget the national ruin and mismanagement of our country for 16 years by successive PDP administration and this bad memory will dog the campaign of the PDP Candidate,” Tinubu said in his message to Atiku.

“Nevertheless, I once again congratulate our former Vice President for his victory in his
his victory in his party’s primary.”
