A member of the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Alhaji Seidu Baba, said on Saturday the forum has not adopted the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential flag bearer, Atiku Abubakar, as the consensus candidate in next weekend’s election.
Baba, who made the clarification at a news conference in Abuja, said though, Atiku has been scheming to be endorsed as the North’s sole candidate, NEF has not adopted him.
He dismissed the claims that the NEF’s 10th anniversary was to adopt Atiku as the consensus candidate for the North, the former Vice President has no credentials to be the region’s choice in the election.
