By Danlami Nmodu
Former Vice President and Presidential Candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar has declared that he is not going away from the political scene yet, despite his disappointment over the Supreme Court verdict.

He said, “As for me and my party this phase of our work is done. However, I am not going away. For as long as I breathe I will continue to struggle, with other Nigerians, to deepen our democracy and rule of law and for the kind of political and economic restructuring the country needs to reach its true potential. That struggle should now be led by the younger generation of Nigerians who have even more at stake than my generation.”
