The Atiku/Okowa Campaign Organization has claimed that the massive support demonstrated by the people of Kogi State, especially the youths, towards Atiku Abubakar and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is a further confirmation of their decisiveness to vote him as the next President of Nigeria.
Spokesperson of the Campaign Council, Kola Ologbondiyan in a statement on Sunday, expressed gratitude to various groups including professionals in various fields, government workers, traditional institutions, faith-based groups, business community, traders, artisans, transporters, farmers among others for coming out to express solidarity with Atiku and the PDP.
“The people of Kogi State amply demonstrated that Kogi, just like majority of the States of the federation, is home to the PDP and that Atiku Abubakar will record a sweeping victory across Kogi State and others to emerge victorious at the first ballot at the close of the February 25th presidential poll”.
The campaign Organisation praised the courage, resilience and energy which the youths of the State displayed at the rally, saying that it signposts their preparedness to come out enmasse to vote for Atiku Abubakar on February 25, 2023 and to stand in defence of their votes to the very end.
“The people of Kogi State, like majority of millions of Nigerians in other States, have rejected the incompetent, violent, corrupt and anti-people All Progressives Congress (APC) and its Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and they are eager to vote in Atiku Abubakar and the PDP which embody their hope, aspiration and determination for a better nation”.
The Campaign charged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and security agencies to note the feelings and aspiration of the majority of the people and take steps to ensure free, fair, secure and credible elections across the nation.
The Atiku/Okowa Campaign further urged Nigerians to continue to mobilize for Atiku Abubakar ahead of the elections while reminding those that are yet to pick up their Permanent Voters’ Cards to do so in the collective desire to end the misery which the All Progressives Congress (APC) has come to represent.
