He also asked the party’s leadership to grant him the right of first turndown for the 2023 ticket.

Atiku said this to the PDP National Working Committee at the Wadata Plaza public secretariat when he formally acquaint the leadership with his decision to dispute for the presidential ticket ahead of the 2023 choices.

Making a case for his training, the presidential applicant said he formerly had 11 million sure votes to grant PDP the palm coming time and, thus, should be handed the ticket.

Atiku who prompted the NWC to insure the emergence of only the quality candidate promised to work for the degeneration of powers to the countries and unify the country if given the occasion.

According to him “Mr. Chairman and members of the National Working Committee, I ’m really not then to lecture you, I ’m just really then to inform you of my decision, to run again, and also to prompt you to give the right kind of leadership so that the good candidate can present.

“ And I dare sayMr. Chairman, I’m the good quality candidate. Under normal circumstancesMr. Chairman, this is a joe who formerly has 11 million votes in his kitty. And I suppose, as a party, you should give me the right of first turndown but we’re in a democracy.

All that I can prompt you to do is to make sure that the way you have started, you also conclude the way you have started by being veritably fair, veritably believable, giving every competitor the occasion to face the electorate.”

The Wazirin Adamawa added that when given the accreditation to run, he’d not be a Muhammadu-Buhari type of President.

He contended that a Buhari administration is unable of directing Ministries, Agencies, and Departments on what to do to squash the country’s security straits.

About two months agone, I was on a visit to Niger State and I decided to pay a courtesy call to the governor.

“ The governor told me, Sir, we’ve about 12 original governments, which are under the control of bandits. We do n’t know how to conduct choices in those original governments.

And I went to the President, I said,Mr. President, we need further bobbies and the President said how can I give you further bobbies when the inspector general of police and the police service commission is in court on who’ll retain bobbies?’

And that’s where we’re moment. We can not retain bobbies because the two agencies are in court and we’ve a chairman who can not bring beneath control his own heads of departments, not indeed ministers? he queried.

In his reflections, Ayu who cited his genial relationship with the former vice chairman pledged to work for all 17 presidential applicants and allow the delegates to decide the flagbearer.
