Says Atiku has right to choose running mate

By Dirisu Yakubu

ABUJA- The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has denied the existence of a rift within its ranks over the choice of former Anambra state governor, Mr. Peter Obi as running mate of its Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar in the 2019 general elections.

Obi, a two-time governor of Anambra was on Friday picked by the former Vice President after a closed door meeting at the Abuja residence of the latter.

However, there have been unconfirmed reports particularly in online tabloids of some governors elected on the platform of the party as well as key stakeholders claiming they were not consulted before the decision was made.


But a party official who declined to be named told Sunday Vanguard that “there are no issues as far as the choice of the running mate is concerned,” adding that the decision on who gets on the ballot with Atiku is exclusively the prerogative of the former Vice President to make.

“There are no issues. Everything is alright. Yes, there are insinuations and speculations but there are no problems, no issues. Our Presidential candidate has the right to choose whoever he feels comfortable to work with,” he said.

Atiku, last week beat eleven other contestants to the PDP ticket after garnering an impressive tally of 1,532 votes to emerge the winner.

FOR 2019 Let us compare some issues:
1. Power: this and other infrastructural developments are needed to boost business. This government has generated more power now than in previous government. Before now, they sold/privatizated power, looted the money for power, they became shareholders in companies that imported generators & turned us to up "NEPA"
Atiku has the biggest company in Nigeria that import generators to the country by the way, how will that kind of person will ever want the country to have constant electricity?!
We witnessed that for many years prior now!

And he has been in government for more than a decade with nothing to show for only that aspect of the economy (Power).

2. Economy: according to reports, only about 12% of the masses transact in foreign currencies. Most users need it for luxury i.e shoes, furniture, wears and for foreign product's which can be locally made , that is finished agricultural goods, rice, etc. There is what we call trade deficits. Nigeria has always been more of an importing country than exporting save for crude oil. This inability to balance trade over time has been affecting the exchange rate. Buhari is doing what Trump is doing to America, shut down the borders to foreign goods that can be grown locally, engage in indigenous production. In a space of 10 years of such consistency with participation of corporate coys, state government like Ebonyi, Nasarawa, Jigawa have done with rice,the youth participation then, jobs and food would be available.Today Exportation has increased, importation is reducing and the naira would be strengthened against foreign currencies over time. What we've witnessed in the past has been government opening its ports to foreign goods, turning the country to a dumping ground, fraudulent duty waivers to cronies, thus discouraging indigenous production making the country lazy. Let us begin with your TSA argument. Our lazy banks made easy monies holding fraudulent funds for Federal MDAs. PMB shut down those accounts to enable the banks carry out real banking of lending to real sector, agro sector, marine & oil and gas.
This has save govt millions of naira of bank charges.
Again, it's obvious the trouble makers have diverted their sponsorship of crime to politicking for now, little wonder the sudden reduced killings.
Was Bush America weak when September 11 happened? These are temporary setbacks that our securities are tirelessly working on.
Please kindly tell us if we've not made gains in agriculture than ever before.
Please also tell us if we've not generated power than ever before.
We say no to those who took us into recession by plundering and raping the country blind.
Now they are gathering again to destroy d little gains we've made.

There is no quick fix.Why are we so forgetful, we are our own problem. No pain no gain. G.O
We are not here to capmpaign , everyone has a right to vote for their candidate.
Posterity will judge us all and your children will definitely ask you questions in your old age.
GOD BLESS NIGERIA.

Atiku said he was going to focus on key issues.
No sir.
You need to establish your own AMC and counter dirty propaganda with dirty propaganda.
That’s the only language that a despotic regime understands.

Atiku will lose massively in the North. The fact that he chose a Biafran as VP would make it worse.
