Segun Showunmi, spokesman of the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, has revealed that it will be a colossal catastrophe if the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) fails to field his principal as its candidate in the 2019 presidential election.
Showunmi opined that Atiku deserves the presidential ticket of the PDP because he is well versed and experienced in Nigeria’s political system, and has a deep understanding of the peculiarity of democracy in Nigerian
According to him, Atiku had built consensus, and is a nationalist that has the ears of the people, adding that he remained the only person who could give President Buhari a run for his money.
Speaking with Daily Sun on why Nigerians should throw their weight behind Atiku in 2019, Showunmi said, “There are many Nigerians but he has unique political qualities that distinguished him from others. Many of the aspirants cannot generate exciting emotions outside of their zone. Some of them are just looking at presidency like ambition; they cannot articulate what they want to do with the opportunity. Nigeria needs a leader that has a global reputation.
“Atiku is obviously better than other aspirants including the opposition aspirants. He has a bigger vision for Nigeria. None of the Presidential aspirants could challenge Buhari in the 2019 election and succeed.
” Atiku is the only person that could do that. It will be unwise for PDP to bring an unpopular candidate to challenge the incumbent President. That would be disastrous. He is open to fresh ideas and he believes that all the tribes should bring ideas to the discussion table so we could collectively and extensively discuss and appease all worrying factions.”

Atiku Abubakar is a democrat, One I strongly believe can wrestle power back to the good people of Nigeria..
We need a Nigerian as President not a Southerner or Northerner President, who will promotes oneness and Atiku Abubakar the Waziri Adamawa is that man to make that possible.
Pdp will be doing Nigerians and the party a great favour to consider the former vice President who has shown that he is highly prepared and ready to lead Nigeria out of the woods.
