Atiku Abubakar; Among The Best To Be Expected From Northern Nigeria. by Whynotthetruth(m): 12:23pm On Nov 30, 2016
It is getting to that period in Nigeria diary when politicians are out of their wits, trying to outdo themselves in convincing Nigerians to their side. Nigeria is a UNIQUE country in that EVERY decision is analyzed, weighed, accepted or rejected after going through three(3)distinct criteria;
... Religion
... Ethnicity
... Political Party
These trio criteria has also ensured that Nigeria has never reached her potentials and won't attain such if she doesn't look at individuals beyond these myopic lens.

ATIKU Abubakar is by no means a saint but stands out among the Northerners to be considered for presidency given his not being contaminated or hindered by these myopic criteria in his dealings so far. Some other outstanding factors for which I feel ATIKU is among the best candidates from North include;

1) Exposure, Experience and Expertise:
ATIKU has proved himself worthy of emulation in several, different and diverse sectors. He rose to echelon of service as a Custom's Officer. As an Entrepreneur, he has broken bounds and achieved uncommon success. And as Public servant, led successfully the privatisation exercise of government as anchored by BPE, alongside other assignments as Nigeria Vice President between 1999-2007.

2) Extremism & Extremists Views:
ATIKU seems liberal in his views and his continued support for decentralization of government which most northeners don't support make him to stand out as a man with a mind of his own. Who also considers the views of his neighbor's in taking decision and not necessarily selfish decisions always. Fanatics and extremists have done Nigeria more harm than good.

3) Leadership Quality;
A journey through his successful career will put flower to this point. He has succeeded both in personal, public, and organizational leadership positions.

4) CORRUPTION TAG;
It is a fact that this tag came to life when he challenged the unwholesome appetite for power by his then boss; Obj .Nuhu Ribadu who led the onslaught against ATIKU then has not denied begging ATIKU for forgiveness for wrongful accusation.
US government has declared through some recent publication of having no case file against him as against public perception. With no court conviction against him with regard to corruption and looting of Treasury, we can assume him innocent in that regards.


5) ECONOMIC BLUEPRINT;
Any avid follower of APC primary election in 2015 will agree with me that ATIKU Abubakar was the ONLY APC presidential candidate with VERITABLE, VERIFIABLE, & VIABLE economic blueprint . He has always being ready for the job with his simple, concise and implementable blueprints.

There could be other good products from the North yet to declare open their interest but in all, ATIKU is a FAR UPGRADE on a country that could tolerate a Buhari presidency.

Thanks and God bless us all... wink

Tell us more about his corruption tendency?

Atiku is like the proverbial pig that cannot get completely clean because the more you do that the more determined he is to soil his body in mud.

Stop this nonsense already.

The truth is that ATIKU remains the only Northerner that understands the diversity of Nigeria too well, what people don't understand is that they carried away with all the media persecutions by Atiku's own enemies. The man is well learned and can tolerate which is a rare feature of an average northerner. I just hope we see the need to rally round him ..................

ATIKU is a friend of the SOUTH, we have always supported him from day 1. The truth is that he understands the south more than any other northerner. ATIKU can never refer to us as 5%, cause he understands the sensitivity of any word he says unlike the ani mal that opens his mouth to spew thrash.

They are more or less all the same to me. Atiku is friendlier to the south in what way? Because he will pick a southern vice-presidential candidate or what?

Wonders shall never end. After seeing the venom, hatred and insults these Biafrans directed to the north after their hero was soundly and roundly defeated by the northerners. To think that after a year and some months they have started drumming support for another northerner make me believe that with Biafrans anything is possible.

smh...

1)When Jonathan won election in 2011, weren't people maimed and massacred in North? ...Did you show your disgust to them when they exercised their freedom and franchise next time?

2)When these Biafrans according to you voted Yar'adua in 2007 were they less humans? ...So what's wrong if they exercise their freedom and franchise?

3)The hatred, venom etc is in YOU not them...stop projecting your image on others...thanks!!!
