The Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has described the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as an “alliance of convenience” that will collapse after defeat in the coming presidential election in 2023.
The former Vice President stated this shortly after the inauguration of the youth wing of PDP’s Presidential Campaign Council in Abuja on Thursday.
however, urged the newly inaugurated National Youth Campaign Council, drawn from the six geo-political zones to take his message of hope down to the nooks and crannies of their wards and inspire in them his agenda of resetting and rescuing Nigeria.
PDP’s vice-presidential candidate and Governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa said Nigeria is in distress in the hands of APC and in dire need of a “chief medical consultant” in the person of Atiku Abubakar to revive it from coma.
He, however, said the task of reclaiming Nigeria from years of misrule by APC rests squarely on the Nigerian youths to make the right choice by investing their future in the hands of Atiku who has always spoken truth to them and shun the pack of lies and deceit by the ruling party and its candidate.
The Deputy National Chairman (North), Ambassador Umar Iliya Damagum who represented the National Chairman, Iyochia Ayu also charged the youths to seize the opportunity offered by the PDP to create the kind of change they truly deserve even as he called on them to eschew violence.
Also present at the well attended event were the Director-General of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organization, Aminu Tambuwal, the Deputy Director General of Operations and former Governor of Cross Rivers State, Liyel Imoke and a member of PDP Board of Trustees, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi.
