Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), has promised residents of Delta state that he won’t
betray their trust if he is elected.
Speaking on Tuesday during his party’s presidential campaign
rally at the Stephen Keshi stadium in Asaba, the Delta capaital, Atiku said he
will tackle insecurity and revamp the economy.
“We are here to show our gratitude and appreciation to say
that we are with you in all respects because of the support we have received
from you from 1999 to date,” Atiku said.
“All through my political journey, Delta state has always
supported me and I want to promise you that I shall not betray the trust of
Delta and the entire Niger Delta.
“That is why in my modest appreciation, I chose one of you
as my vice-presidential candidate and you know that a running mate is always a
stepping stone.
“Therefore, it is up to you to show your support by giving
Governor Okowa the massive support to enable us to rescue and rebuild our dear
country.
“The Niger Delta and other parts of the country will benefit
from our resource control and restructuring agenda because it is our intention
to devolve more powers to the states and local governments to tackle peculiar
challenges facing the people.
“The APC government has disunited Nigeria in all aspects and
it is our commitment to restore the unity of this country by ensuring that
every part of this country has a sense of belonging.
“You must believe in PDP because as a party, we built the
biggest economy in Africa until the APC came and destroyed it in 2015. Why vote
for the same party that has suffered us in the last seven years plus? Let us
vote them out to unite and rebuild our country again.”
