Atiku Abubakar, Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and former Vice President of Nigeria, has called on all stakeholders of the PDP and his supporters to desist from making statements that are capable of compromising the on-going work towards further strengthening the party and bringing all its leaders together.
The former Vice President made the call in a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Paul Ibe in Abuja on Thursday.
According to the statement, “it has become imperative to appeal to all party members, leaders and everyone related to, connected with or associated with the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar to desist from making comments that potentially reduce the optics of PDP’s image as a united political party.
Atiku pointed out that Nigerians are looking up to the PDP to lead the charge in ousting the ruling party, adding that this expectation from the people is the reason why the APC is jittery of their impending fall in next year’s general election.
He accused the ruling APC of manipulating the political process to create a sense of division in the PDP.
