2019: Atiku Weeps, Obtains PDP Nomination Forms

Atiku Abubakar
Former Vice President of Nigeria Alhaji Atiku Abubakar could not hold back tears as his supporters purchased expression of interest and nomination forms of the PDP for him in Abuja on Friday.

The presidential hopeful, who is seeking the PDP ticket for the 2019 elections, wept as he collected the forms from Adekemi Adesanya, a member of the Atiku Support Groups (ASG).

Atiku said the act was remarkable because young people pooled resources to purchase the forms for him.

“The event today is significant and historic because this is the only time in my political career that young men and women in this country have come together without my knowledge or even consent to contribute their own hard-earned money to buy me an expression of interest and nomination forms,” he said.

“You could have seen that one of the ladies who spoke virtually succeeded in getting me to weep. This is because she aptly described the challenges every Nigerian is facing in this country today and she believed honestly and sincerely from the bottom of her heart that I could be an instrument of addressing those challenges.

“So, for such a woman to believe that I have got those leadership qualities and including those of you who have brought out your monies to buy this form, is one of the most serious challenges I have ever faced in my political career.

“And believe me, addressing those challenges is possible because we have brought young men and women, Nigerians who have got the talents, who have got the education, who have got the experience, who have got all what it take to honestly turn this country around.”

Thanking his supporters, the former number two citizen of the nation promised to work to provide jobs for the youths if elected.
