The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has bragged that he will become the president in 2023 with or without the support of the five aggrieved governors (G-5) of the party.
The former vice president described himself as an elephant noting that he can not be taken by surprise by the G-5 governors adding that he is not worried about their plan to endorse another party’s presidential candidate.
Recall Theliberationnews reported today that the G-5 had expressed their resolve to pitch their tent with the foremost presidential candidate in the country and respected national leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Atiku said that anyone that plans to stop him from achieving his political ambition, should first make himself the president of Nigeria.
He stated that he is an elephant that has seen everything, noting that he cannot be taken by surprise by the aggrieved governors.
Atiku, who spoke through his Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu, said any person boasting of having such powers to stop his presidential bid, should first make himself president.
His words: “Atiku will be president. Whether the cock crows or not, the sun must rise. Power belongs to God Almighty; no man can arrogate to himself the powers of God Almighty. Any man who can boast of stopping Atiku should first make himself president of Nigeria.
“Atiku is an elephant. Even when an elephant walks on thorns, it does not limp. And when you have seen a snake, it cannot bite you anymore. In this case, we have seen the snake, how can we be taken by surprise?”
