After meeting with the two candidates from the New Nigerian People Party, Rabiu Kwankwaso and the Labour Party, Peter Obi, the PDP’s Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, said that both candidates are no threat to his winning the election on February 25.
In a 15-minute interview with the BBC Hausa station on Tuesday, Atiku made this clear.
Speaking to the interviewer in Hausa, Atiku claimed that and that he would be willing to work both candidates in the upcoming election.
“Although, I see no threat in any of them but we are in talks, and the discussion might yield a positive result that will see one of them coming.”
When asked about the ongoing PDP crisis, Atiku responded that every party has its own internal problems, and theirs is no exception. However, they are working quickly to resolve all of their differences.
“Each party has its internal crisis, we are still talking with them. Most are neither in PDP nor in other parties and definitely that will not make us lose the election because we are okay with the election preparations for now.
“Election now is not like in the past when a governor will dictate who to vote for, election today is in the hands of the voters,” he added.
