The Presidential Candidate of the People’s Democratic Party ( PDP), Atiku Abubarkar said that anyone who wishes to stop his political ambitions should first become President of Nigeria.
Atiku stated that the plot of the party’s five aggrieved governors to endorse the presidential candidates of other political parties will not change God’s decision on the 2023 general elections.
He said power comes from God and he was confident that no man could arrogate to himself the powers that God alone has.
Atiku said this through his Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu.
His words: “Atiku will be president. Whether the cock crows or not, the sun must rise. Power belongs to God Almighty; no man can arrogate to himself the powers of God Almighty. Any man who can boast of stopping Atiku should first make himself president of Nigeria.
“Atiku is an elephant. Even when an elephant walks on thorns, it does not limp. And when you have seen a snake, it cannot bite you anymore. In this case, we have seen the snake, how can we be taken by surprise?”
Recalled that some aggrieved governors compromising of Governor Nyesom Wike (Rivers) Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Samuel Ortom (Benue) and Seyi Makinde (Oyo) had pulled out of Atiku’s campaign.
They insisted that the party’s presidential candidate and national chairman cannot be from the same region.
They keep insisting on the replacement of the PDP national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, with a Southerner as a condition for peace.
Earlier, in the week, there were reports that the aggrieved governors, had gone to London for a meeting, to adopt either the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi or Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress ( APC) for the 2023 polls.
