2023: Again, Atiku drops promises for Ndigbo 

The Presidential flag bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Thursday, assured that his administration, if elected, would dredge River Niger and complete Onitsha Seaport.

Atiku, who disclosed this in Awka, Anambra State capital, during a campaign rally organised by his party, maintained that at end of his tenure, he would support an Igbo man to succeed him as President in 2031.

He called on electorate in Anambra and entire  Southeast geopolitical zone to vote for him and Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, because according to him, as in-law, his administration would make the state feel sense of belonging if elected.

Also speaking, the National Chairman of the PDP, Senator Iyocha Ayu, urged Anambra electorate to cast their votes for PDP as his experience stood him out and better than other contestants.

On his part, the Vice Presidential candidate of the party and Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, described Atiku as a sellable product, a man of impeccable character and a unifier.

The Director General of the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, Governor Aminu Tambowal of Sokoto State, said the PDP presidential flag reflects the Nigerian dream.

Earlier, Atiku paid a courtesy call on Anambra State governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, who assured him a level playing ground, arguing that politics “is about development and we want the South East to feel this development.”
