2019 ELECTION: South
South Youths Urge Ex-VP Atiku Abubakar To Declare Presidential Ambition
A youth group in the South-South geo-political
zone, Nigerian Youths Project 2019, NYP, has opened a campaign office for the former Vice
President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Meanwhile the body also urged Atiku to declare his intention
to contest the 2019 presidential election on the platform of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, promising that the group would purchase his (Atiku’s)
nomination form.
The body, established to actualise Atiku’s presidential
ambition, made the disclosures in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, yesterday, while
officially flagging off the South-South zone of NYP and unveiling of the
campaign office on Olu Obasanjo Road, Port Harcourt.
Speaking, the National Coordinator of NYP, Alhaji Orlu Nyekachi,
said the call was based on Atiku’s records of accomplishment in business and
his leadership qualities while serving in the capacity of vice president.
Nyekachi expressed sadness that the present administration after much promises,
had failed the nation, claiming that the only northern candidate that could
turn around the fortunes and economy of the nation if voted into power, is
Atiku.
He said, “Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is seen as a threat to the
ambition of the APC-led government to hold onto power in 2019. As a group, we
have conducted an opinion pool of all the northern elites who have indirectly
or directly shown interest to run for the presidency in 2019 in both the PDP
and APC including the incumbent president and we discovered that Atiku stands
as the best option.
“The Nigerian Youths Project 2019 therefore urges Atiku
Abubakar to declare his ambition to contest the 2019 presidential election on
the platform of PDP.”
