The Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organisation says Atiku Abubakar, PDP’s standard-bearer in the 2023 election, will end the APC regime’s misrule under President Muhammadu Buhari, vowing that Mr Abubakar will win the poll at the first ballot.

Through its spokesman Kola Ologbondiyan, the campaign council said this in a Tuesday statement.

The PDP campaign said with Mr Abubakar’s support by Nigerians across the board, the outcome of the presidential election, in which Mr Abubakar would emerge victorious on February 25, 2023, would shock pollsters.

“He enjoys the solidarity and support of greater majority of Nigerians who were not captured in the indices relied upon by many of the pollsters in their projections on the 2023 presidential election,” stated the PCC. “It is incontrovertible that Abubakar will win the majority of lawful votes across the country and garner the constitutionally required 25 per cent of votes in more than 24 states of the federation.”

The statement noted that the “massive traditional voters of the PDP across the polling units, wards, local governments, states and the six geo-political zones are not distracted in their steadfastness to rescue Nigeria from the misrule by voting en masse” for the ex-vice president.

The PDP presidential campaign council claimed that “this army of traditional voters are unrelenting in mobilising the non-partisan voters as well as the undecided across the country to vote for the PDP presidential candidate.”

It added, “Our campaign is therefore unfazed knowing that majority of Nigerians across the nation are in consensus to elect Abubakar as the next president of our country,” stressing that this “is particularly, given his proven capacity, competence, political will and national acceptability to provide leadership at this critical time of our national history.”

The PDP campaign urged Nigerians to remain united and focused on supporting Mr Abubakar in the collective mission to rescue and rebuild the nation.
