The governing All Progressives Congress, (APC), in its first official reaction to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s nomination as Presidential Candidate of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) has accused him of buying the ticket and not winning it democratically.

According to APC, Atiku reportedly bought over almost all the PDP delegates which saw him being declared winner of the presidential primaries.

The party wondered how Atiku will recoup his “investment”, if not from the public treasury should he win the Presidency, taking into account the huge expenses expended to secure the PDP ticket.

Acting national publicity secretary, Yekini Nabena, raised these issues in a congratulatory message to Abubakar on his election as the PDP 2019 presidential candidate. Nabena, however, said APC’s congratulatory message to Abubakar was in keeping with its belief in participatory democracy and the electorate’s right to freely choose from candidates in any political contest.

He, however, noted that in assessing candidates to be voted for during elections, Nigerians will normally consider the candidate’s background and antecedents.

According to the APC Spokesman, “the pertinent question to ask about Atiku is what his scorecard in public office was? Regrettably, Atiku’s scorecard is abysmally low and he has proven to be an untrustworthy and unreliable character. “A case in point is Atiku’s revealing altercation with his former boss, President Olusegun Obasanjo which exposed the level of corruption Atiku was enmeshed in. “In the international level, Atiku has been reportedly placed on the global watch list of the United States of America and has avoided travelling to the US to avoid arrest and prosecution over a money-laundering and corruption case in that country.

Really, is this the character and antecedent of a candidate Nigerians will be proud to vote for as our President, come 2019? “Compared and contrasted with President Muhammadu Buhari’s consistent and principled stance on party affiliations, since 1999, Atiku has moved around different political parties – PDP, ACN, PDP, APC and now PDP, all in his blind and desperate pursuit of his ambition – The Presidency of Nigeria. It is therefore very clear that if Atiku loses the presidential election in 2019, he will again defect from the PDP to another political platform.

“Atiku is known as a super-rich Nigerian who entrenched the undemocratic practice of buying votes of delegates. During the APC National Convention in 2014, he spent several millions of dollars to buy delegates votes and emerged third, after Buhari and Rabiu Kwankwaso. “Our dear President Muhammadu Buhari does not spend a kobo on delegates as he banks only on his proven personal integrity. In any case how did a retired Customs Officer acquire so much wealth to fund his several presidential bids? The source of his wealth is very questionable and his financial resources are definitely ill gotten. “Nigerians have had enough of corrupt, cash and carry politicians.

That was why in 2015 they came out enmasse and elected a clean and transparent man in Muhammadu Buhari to clean the Augean stable.

The candidature of Atiku Abubakar will bring back the undesired lots and their practices which Nigerians have long rejected and forgotten.

“The Nigerian electorate deserves to be given a choice of decency, integrity and honour and not dirt, corruption and infamy.

The choice between Buhari and Atiku is one between light and darkness; between positive change and business as usual; between transparency and under the table dealings.

“As we prepare for the forthcoming 2019 elections, one thing is clear. If the choice is between a presidential candidate/change agent who is rebuilding the country and refocusing our national priorities and attitudes on one hand and another candidate who along with his gang of co-looters stole the country’s commonwealth and brought the country to its knees, that choice has already been made by the Nigerian electorate”.

Hmmm, I think the APC is feeling the heat already. Even if Atiku is corrupt, he has my vote. We shall all Atikulate come 2019.

Lifeless bought all join In APC.. Let atikulate this country

desperate yahoo yahoo party

Lol

And the people have been so battered and rendered broke by the dwindling economy that most people could barely afford the outrageously priced APC nomination forms.

Enjoy my siggy

Abeg APC should stop all these sweet talks at this 11th hour, e no go work.
Even if na jazz, Nigerians are ready to dump Mr Daura and APC this time!

Nonsense and Inconclusive lies...

Never again!!

Another reason to vote Atiku.
Thank you APC for making us to see the light(ATIKU)
God bless the PDP God bless Atiku

The question is why is efcc not on his case? the purgatory state your APC government has kept us is enough. Four years enduring this suffering don do oooh...It's time for us to change the change.

Is It your buy?

..............Nigerians.................

I really wonder if Nigerians really learn from history. I had thought we have a lot of elders on Nairaland.

I can't believe that Nigerians will still want Atiku to replace Buhari.

Remember the times Buhari contested and lost?
Remember the times Atiku contested and lost?

Do you really know the magnitude of corruption Atiku has done.

In fact, from what I know, Atiku would be worse than Buhari if he wins

Atiku that is known internationally for corruption how will he convince the world leaders that he will transform Nigerians with his bad records.

The same way Nigerians use Buhari to send Jonathan away and they are now suffering, the same way they want to use Atiku(political prostitute) to send Buhari away.

Anyway, I don't know who will finally win the election but with the way Nigerians reacted about this Atiku saga really sadding my heart.

I won't be surprised If Nigerians call Buhari a saint(like Jonathan) if Atiku starts his evil rule.

I have come to the conclusion that if Nigerian will move forward Nigerians must first move forward in their mentality.


No wonder the white will always say that Africans only think about the present and forget the past and future.

Note: I am not in support of any party, I'm only concerned about the future of Nigeria.

Even if they show me a video of ATIKU stealing money from World Bank, Customs, NNPC, I and my family will still vote ATIKU!


A corrupt ATIKU is better than a brain dead, slow and mentally weak dullard buhari.

4get all the trash we still need a change different from lifeless change jor

You will never see Zombies applauding the achievements of the dullard and telling you why he should be given another 4years, instead all they do is try to demarket other presidential aspirants.

It is very obvious zombies know that buhari does not have a single achievement since 2015 but they would rather want him to remain there on sentiment, that is why they keep spreading propaganda on innocent ATIKU everywhere.

Tell me why I should vote the dullard again, this is not 2015, these propagandas and baseless gimmicks won't work again this time.

As the saying goes, "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me"
Nigerians are wiser now.

We are atikulating 2019!
