Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the last general elections, Atiku Abubakar, has raised alarm over alleged plans aimed at linking him to criminal activities in the near future.

Atiku raised the alarm in a statement issued by his spokesman, Paul Ibe, in Abuja on Thursday.

According to him, there were plans to plant stories in “some mushroom media outlets” with the intention of discrediting Atiku and the PDP.

The Statement reads thus:

“We wish to blow the whistle as an early-warning alert of the grandiose scheme being put together by some unscrupulous elements aimed at jeopardising the reputation of His Excellency, Atiku Abubakar, in the coming days and weeks,” the statement read.

“By the merit of what is beginning to unfold, there are plans to create some upsets across the country whereby alleged perpetrators of such crimes will engage in phantom names-dropping of Atiku Abubakar and some senior personalities in the Peoples Democratic Party.

“Already, we are abreast of some other plans to plant fictitious stories in some mushroom media outlets aimed at discrediting Atiku and his political party, the PDP.

“It, therefore, becomes preponderant that we alert the public of this demonic plan and to say that it will be imprudent to compromise the peace and security of Nigerians in order to score a cheap political goal.

“Towards this end, and for the umpteenth time, we call on the Federal Government to be awake to its responsibilities of providing security and ensuring peace, and to desist from actions and utterances that are capable of exposing our fault lines.

“It is very unsettling that senior administration officials, especially those who are the mouthpiece of government will make reckless but calculated comments to tarnish the image of Atiku Abubakar and government will sit idly on it.

“With the conclusion reached by relevant security outfits that there is no evidentiary proof to back the claim by Lai Mohammed that the opposition was planning to upstage the government, we demand that the information minister should be arrested for a breach of security and an apology rendered to Atiku Abubakar and the PDP.”

how is a looser? May you never be cheated whenever you win anaything.

Atiku is really a fighter, Tanbuwa and other aspirants would have chickened out even before this stage which made me to understand that PDP didn't make any mistake giving the ticket to him.

Is the Cameroonian Jokoli not a cyber criminal already!
