Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by Bobloco(op): 12:52am On Nov 26, 2024
Amidst Nigeria’s economic challenges, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has recalled how the nation prospered under the Obasanjo/ Atiku presidency (1999-2007), with the then Vice President, Atiku Abubakar as head of the national economic council.


National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, went down memory lane in a birthday message to Atiku on behalf of party.


He said, “The PDP and Nigerians across board continue to recognize Atiku Abubakar’s record of performance in the service to our nation, particularly as the Chairman of the National Economic Council under the Obasanjo/Atiku-led PDP administration between 1999 and 2007, during which our nation achieved massive and unparalleled national productivity in all sectors to become one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

He said the party was proud of and celebrates the former Vice President and PDP Presidential Candidate in the 2023 Presidential election, who is also one of the founding fathers of the Party, “as he marks his birthday today.”

Ologunagba further said, “Atiku Abubakar is a selfless, compassionate, humble and people-oriented leader; a unifier, forthright politician, democrat and global Statesman who continues to dedicate his intellect, energy, resources and abilities towards the unity, stability and economic development of our dear nation.

“His outstanding leadership qualities led to the overwhelming support and massive votes from Nigerians across all walks of life for him and our Party in the 2019 and 2023 Presidential elections, which mandate was unfortunately subverted by undemocratic forces, resulting in the current sorry state of affairs in our nation.

“Our Party extols Atiku Abubakar for his resilience as the people’s leader as demonstrated in his unrelenting passion and quest for good governance, economic prosperity, accountability, equity, justice, fairness and strict adherence to the demands of the Rule of Law and democratic tenets in the overall interest of the wellbeing of all Nigerians.

“On this auspicious occasion, the PDP family prays to the Almighty Allah to grant Atiku Abubakar more wisdom, sound health and strength in the service of our dear fatherland and humanity.”

Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by Christistruth00: 1:24am On Nov 26, 2024
Exactly

It was unparalleled in stupendous corruption

Atiku sold the most profitable Nigerian industries to himself at a fraction of the value and even the money he used to buy them was looted from the Treasury

Obasanjo has the full story

Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by Frigga13: 4:53am On Nov 26, 2024
The fear of Atiku contesting is the beginning of Yoruba people wisdom 2027..

The know all truth .. tho nothing on economy.. but fear of losing their Muslim Northwest and central to a real northerner and a muslim.. is hitting differently on them

So they attack Atiku… from their President to their bots.. Atiku they’re paid to attack.

Am only sorry for Igbos if they fail to wake up to this reality.. and believe Obi will rescue Nigeria and Nigerians fro Tinubu.. this is a fallacy.. because they will play the muslim ticket again to northwest.. then sing power must come south to gullible southerners ..

This is the reality of yoruba policing 2027..

South south wil always go with the north.. once there’s an option.. they’ve never been betrayed by north..
The west they don’t trust and cannever trust.

Igbos must play this 2027 politics with wisdom.. otherwise is a free meal ticket to Tinubu and his Yoruba government .

Never listen to Baba Obasanjo.. if not for him and his sentiments..Tinubu no for dey here today ..
But it’s good he’s here …so Nigerians can see the best of Yoruba tribe and compare to an illiterate herder from Arewa .

East will get to presidency at its time .. without qualms and competiton or propaganda . But events of reality.

East alignment with North .. staying with south .. will chase Tinubu out of villa… and imprisoned him join with muscle ..

Forget Wike and his IG .. those are weak men made mighty by Yoruba media..

When the chips are down… you see their naked asses and they will be the first to disembark from this country


2026 is for better alignment…. They government will unleash different more propaganda and majority bots on social media as reasons why power must not returned North ..some will tell you that they will rather vote obi than for power to returned North..

If Igbo man. Want make una believe … their brainwashing and propaganda..

South south. .. the ijaw and izon nation has never ever fallen to Yoruba propaganda since and before the civil war ..

Igbos must wake

Atiku is a strong opposition in todays Nigeria .
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by Asgard73: 5:28am On Nov 26, 2024
Igbos must align it’s the north to rescue Nigerian from the shackles of thi Yoruba government

Yoruba gaslighting of southerners must be ignored

GEJ PDP government was doing so well .. but the west played him .. and politics.. aligned with buhari to scuttle that government


Igbos must replay that .. exactly in way and. Manner that the southwest did..

2027 is a huge political opportunity… to move Nigeria forward or remain stock

Obi must wake up to Nigeria political setting .. Igbos hating the North won’t giv them Presidency..

Obidients must preached this fact .

We’ve know this for long… 2 years before he got to villa.
And we also know his weaknesses

Igbos must wake .

How much did he borrow when he was heading the economic team?
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by malali: 7:25am On Nov 26, 2024
Atiku should retire in Dubai.
These old men have nothing to offer.

The people that want to come and loot under Atiku are the ones pushing him.
If Obasanjo Doesn't trust Atiku...Nigerians dont trust Atiku too.

Obasanjo gave us Yaradua and GEJ
We had comparably good times under these 2
Asides the Diezani Looting

I dont think Atiku is what we need.
Atiku should just be a Godfather and look for a young vibrant person, prefarably not more than 60 years old.

The world has moved from digital to Artificial Intelligence
With Central bank digital currency around the corner
Block chain technology for supply chains

Atiku and Tinubu are dinosaurs.
Obi doesnt not even have the Charisma to be president.
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by AntiChristian: 7:25am On Nov 26, 2024
cool

Atiku lẹkan sí.

Atiku one more time!

Atiku is still younger than Biden! He can still go for two terms from 2027!

And $ still plenty for Do-buy!


.................
I wonder why people still celebrate birthdays! You're celebrating depreciation in your lifespan! Even if your lifespan remains 70 years last year, today it is 69.

So why celebrate?
grin

Thanks for reminding us he has already served.

Happy retirement to Siddiq.

Atiku is one of the reasons that principals do not allow their deputies to have too much power.

Obasanjo delegated a lot of power to Atiku, while he set about promoting the image of Nigeria and seeking debt relief in the international circuit.

He did not know that Atiku is not loyal and would attempt to contest against him in the PDP presidential primary of 2002.

After that episode, Obasanjo dealt with him and other principals like Governors learnt not to empower their deputies to avoid begging like Obasanjo.

It has overpassed.

An 81year old man cannot be presented as candidate by any serious party.

Atikus record as head of the economic team was indeed unparalleled.
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by laurel03(m): 7:38am On Nov 26, 2024
Last person I will vote for is Atiku... The way they handle the privatisation during their era... except person forget history easily. I remember when him and Obj was disgracing themselves concerning the issue of PTDF... Atiku should go and rest.
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by Bluntemperor: 7:40am On Nov 26, 2024
Awon Olodo!
Yes,Atiku records has been stated and loaded in the OBJ ' My Watch',which this OP and the PDP Publicity Sec refused to read or pretended as non existent.
Let OP and his PDP Sympathersers go through Baba OBJ Book once again,if Atiku is what they are presenting it to be worth the effort.
Radarada!

Obasanjo will soon reply you. Just wait and let see
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by theophorus(m): 8:06am On Nov 26, 2024
It seems Ologunagba hasn't read "My Watch".

Quick one: What is the performance of all the Public Firms that was Privatized under the control of Atiku? What were the agreements for their sales like?

Once you answer this, you will realize why Atiku sees Nigeria as Business and Dubai as home.
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by adioolayi(m): 8:08am On Nov 26, 2024
Spear heading the privatisation process...

Selling all the saleable Nigeria asset o his cronies at paltry value...

Federal Secretariat buildings at Ikoyi, NigeriaDock, Nigeria Railway, Nigeria Airways and their houses at Ikeja GRA, NITEL, NICON Insurance, Nigeria National Shipping Company, NEPA and loads of departments in some agencies , including teaching Hospitals....The man Atiku na salesman grin grin grin

..and wickedly not paying civil servants affected by his nonsense actions their due benefits..

Truly, Atiku's actions was unparalleled!
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by tundegan: 8:10am On Nov 26, 2024
PDP don dey joke since. How can they celebrate Atiku when all the things he did while in office turned to ash for Nigeria?

They should have just sent him a birthday message without this economic nonsense.
Re: Atiku’s Record As Head Of Nigeria’s Economic Team Unparalleled – PDP by lapintoz: 8:11am On Nov 26, 2024
Of course it was unparalleled. Selling government assets to himself and his cronies. Truly unparalleled. Intels and Halliburton cases are just a tip....

All the gains from oil windfall were plundered and pillaged via PTDF and other SPVs

Under his watch, doesn't that show how dumb he was as a president. The people that sold the corruption story against Atiku are the true enemies of Nigeria.

He who is without sin should cast the stone. Some of us will do worse if given that position.
