Buhari vs Atiku: PDP LG chairmen reveal plan
Chairmen of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in all the 774 local government areas in Nigeria say they have commenced grassroots mobilization for the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, ahead of the 2019 election.
National Chairman of the Forum, Alhaji Idris Gana and Publicity Secretary, Jwe Phillip Gwom, in a statement on Sunday, urged Nigerians to vote out President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) government in 2019.
It said the party’s mass follower-ship across the country will give it victory over the current administration which, according to them, has failed to deliver and fulfil the promises made to the masses.
‘’The people are going through untold hardship at both urban and rural areas across the states with no effort made by President Buhari’s government to make life comfortable for the people of this country,” the forum stated.
“The electorates at the local government areas across the country have expressed their readiness to take their destiny in their hands by voting for change of government come 2019; to have a new President come on board with economic programs that will turn around their fortunes.
“What people are craving for is free and fair conduct of the 2019 general elections to produce their choice at the Presidential, National Assembly, Governorship and State Assembly Elections and INEC must live above board to deliver as promised.
‘’Let us warn here that the voters at the local government areas knows who they want to assume different positions and any attempt to rig the polls would be resisted by the people”.
The statement expressed confidence that an Atiku presidency would turn around the economic fortunes of all Nigerians.
