Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), on Saturday, asked residents of Adamawa state to see
the forthcoming election as a golden opportunity to elect him as president.
Speaking at the campaign rally, which is the finale for the
party ahead of the presidential election scheduled to hold on February 25,
Atiku said he won’t disappoint the people if elected.
The former vice-president said he is committed to the
five-point agenda in his manifesto and would ensure all the promises are kept.
“Let me promise Nigerians that we shall never disappoint
you. If you give us your mandate, we promise to live by our promises to make
sure that we have a united and peaceful country,” Atiku said.
“That we have a
buoyant economy for our country and the best education for our children, and
also devolve powers to our states and local governments with corresponding
resources.
“These are the five key points that the PDP has promised to
deliver. Therefore, I want to reiterate my commitment to these five key points.
“In Adamawa state, you know that this is the golden
opportunity for you if you elect PDP to the presidency; if you elect the PDP to
continue governing the state. I don’t have to tell you what I can do for
Adamawa, the north-east and Nigeria in general. You know that I live by my
words and by my commitment.
“I, therefore, want
to appeal to you to make sure you vote for PDP from bottom to top. Don’t allow
yourselves to be misled by any propaganda by anybody. This is where the future
of our state and the country resides — in the hands of PDP.
“I want to appeal to you to make sure that you vote for all
PDP candidates from the state assembly to the presidency. And I know you’re
going to do that because you have never failed us.”
Atiku further asked the residents to re-elect Ahmadu
Fintiri, governor of Adamawa, to “continue to advance the progress of our
state”.
“He is passionate about education as I am. The combination
of the two of us, I am sure, will make Adamawa state, particularly in the field
of education, a leading light in this country,” the former vice-president said.
“You must not forget
that Nigerians have been very kind to you. They elected me in 2019 to lead this
party and again they were not disappointed. They elected me for the second
time.
“I appeal to you not to disappoint the rest of Nigeria for
the favour they have done to you in this state.”
