In a recent interview with the BBC Hausa Service, former Vice President and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, made a surprising declaration.
He stated that if the PDP decides to zone the presidential ticket to the South-East and chooses Peter Obi, he would wholeheartedly support him.
“I have said repeatedly and I even said it before the 2023 general elections that if the PDP decides to zone the presidential ticket to the South or South-East specifically, I won’t contest it. As long as it’s the decision of the party, I will abide by it. But I contested the 2023 presidential ticket because it was thrown open to all members of the party.
