Elumelu Hails Atiku, Urges Unity

Minority leader of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Ndudi Elumelu, has congratulated former Vice President Atiku Abubakar for winning the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential primary election.

Elumelu in a press statement signed by him also commended all the other presidential aspirants at the PDP special national convention for their courage, patriotism and remarkable spirit of sportsmanship which they displayed throughout the consultation period up to the primary election.

“There is no gainsaying the fact that all our presidential aspirants are eminently qualified and that their aspirations were driven by patriotism in line with the mission of the PDP to rescue our nation from the catastrophic misrule of the vicious, corrupt and incompetent All Progressives Congress (APC).

“However, the delegates have spoken and resoundingly so in electing His Excellency, Atiku Abubakar as the presidential standard bearer to lead our party and indeed Nigerians to victory in the 2023 presidential election.

“The emergence of His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, with his excellent performance record and unmatched popularity across the nation, signals the beginning of PDP’s historic journey back to power in 2023 to commence the process of rescuing, reuniting, redirecting and rebuilding our nation from the ashes of the misrule of the APC led government.

“It is not a coincidence that His Excellency Atiku Abubakar took the mantle as Presidential candidate at the break of May 29, 2022; a date which significantly points to May 29, 2023.

“What Nigerians expect from our party at the moment is to put aside all personal and sectional interests, reinforce our unity and lead the charge to salvage our nation and return her to the path of unity, national cohesion and economic prosperity.

“I commend the National Working Committee, the PDP Governors’ Forum, the Board of Trustees, the National Assembly Caucus, the Senator David Mark-led National Convention Organizing Committee (NCOC) and all other organs and structures of our Party across the federation for our collective efforts in ensuring the success of our National Convention despite the road blocks mounted by the APC,” he said.

Elumelu, therefore, urged all party faithful to remain united and focused to achieve victory for the party.
