Thousands thronged Ribadu Square, Yola, Adamawa State, on Saturday, as former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar formally declared his ambition to run for the presidency in 2019. According to a statement by Atiku’s media office, leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party from all the geopolitical zones of the country and the National Working Committee of the PDP, led by its National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, attended the PDP mega rally. While making his declaration to contest the presidency, Atiku said the ruling government of the All Progressives Congress had performed below par on managing the economy, keeping the country united and stemming the trend of wanton loss of lives in the country. Atiku said, “Fellow Nigerians, the government of APC has failed, it has failed to unite Nigerians. Today, we are more divided than at any other time in the history of this country. “The APC government has destroyed our economy. They took over an economy with a growth of seven percent and brought it down to less than two percent. Today, we are witnessing the most insecure situation in Nigeria ever since APC took over. “Today, we have the highest unemployment rate in this country. More than 10 million of our people have been made unemployed under the watch of the APC administration.” The former vice president stated that more Nigerians had died under the APC than in Iraq and Afghanistan, adding that the Nigerian economy continued to flounder. He said he was poised to work with other compatriots in the PDP to secure the party’s nomination for next year’s election with a mission to rebuild the economy and reunite the country. “What the PDP is going to do is restore our economy, restore the hope of a greater Nigeria and ensure that we have the security of lives and property. “I, therefore, appeal to all of you, wherever you may be, that it is time to now re-embrace the party that has given us unity, prosperity and security in this country,” he added. Secondus said the party would crush the APC in the 2019 elections. Secondus said, “We believe God has finished with the APC, and the PDP is coming like a moving train that will crush the APC government. The leaders of the APC are corrupt. They are in the valley of corruption. They could not allocate revenue to states in the last two months. The government has collapsed; the economy has collapsed, and security has collapsed. Everything has collapsed. “We are on a rescue mission. And so, I charge the people of Adamawa and the North-East to brace themselves for the elections of 2019. We are not afraid; we are strong. We are coming like a moving train and the APC will be crushed in the name of the Lord Almighty. We believe that God has finished with the APC. “What they are doing now is to frame Nigerians and leaders of their own party. Only this morning, we learned that the Reformed APC, the authentic APC headed by Buba Galadima that has life, is being threatened by the APC.” Source: https://grandmarketsquare.com/atiku-declares-presidential-bid-pledges-to-restore-economy/

Hasn't this topic graced front page before? This one that Atiku has already started sharing money on NL...hmm... Atiku has nothing new to offer. He was VP and head of the economic team, yet he did not rescue our economy then. Is it now that we are recovering after a recession due to poor leadership during oil boom PDP years that he wants to perform magic? |

God bless you Atiku.... Buhari has always given excuse from 1983. A dullard per excellence. Time to replace Buhari, the Guiness book of record holder for been the only man alive to have led an economy into recession twice |

![]() THE ONLY WAY FORWARD IS SELF-DETERMINATION TO ALL THE NATIONS WITHIN NIGERIA. #Support_Biafra_Referendum Atiku is Fulani. He owns the highest cows in Nigeria. That makes him the highest employer of herdsmen and importer of arms into this country. #Paul Onogo made this revelation. So why would those who oppose Buhari clamour for Atiku? NO Fulani president will restructure Nigeria! . No Fulani will destroy the structure that protects his interests and guarantees #FULANIS reign in power.� Atiku will not return to indigenes the lands already seized and occupied by Fulanis. He will create committees upon committees for peaceful resolutions to allow the occupiers coexist in the same areas with full emirate powers to the Fulanis. Atiku will never probe Buhari or his regime�.. Copies, just wanna help zoogerians though but you can still check out our latest ogbunigwe ![]()

I had my faith in you sir! When you defected to APC, I lost all faith in you. Hope you have learned your lessons well? ![]() You should NEVER have trusted OBJ! Too bad OBJ and NIGERIANS were toooooo DAFT and put Yar’Adua and GEJ SPIRITUAL DUNCES instead! It is not in your hands anymore. Buhari and INEC will OUT-RIG all. Now, NIGERIA MUST PAY A HEAVY PRICE! If I were you, I will retire from politics for ever. Let the LAZY YOUTHS save themselves from GMB AND TINUBU! You are TEN YEARS TOOOOOOO LATE! Go and enjoy your retirement and OIL-BLOCK wealth! Sowore. . . . All the way. Win or lose. I can NEVER SUPPORT ANY MAN OR WOMAN in Nigerian politics that IS OVER 60! The older generation is CLUELESS, and have done SO MUCH HARM to NIGERIA AND NIGERIANS. Enough of BOTTOM PAWA POLITICS and POLITICAL PROSTITUTION! |

These are reasons why I and every reasonable Nigerian should support Atiku other than Buhari. 1. Atiku has proven that he knows what it means to run a successful business. Governance is a business and that's why Buhari has been failing. 2. He is apparently the most detribalised of all. This attribute is very important in the Nigeria of today especially since there's gonna be a great effort righting all the wrongs Buhari has brought. It's no brainier that Buhari has divided Nigeria so much. 3. He May be corrupt as they say but which is better- a corrupt shop manager who manages the shop very well, brings in a lot of profit and then steals part of the profit or a man who they claim is not corrupt (but lots of corruption fester around him) that locks the shop so that no business is going on (his political godson's still steals without making any profit) puts the key in his pocket while he chases the alleged corrupt official (in this case his politics enemies? 4. Atiku is obviously smarter and more articulate than Buhari. |
