Daniel Bwala, the spokesperson for the Presidential Campaign Organisation of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, has claimed that former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, would “surely contest” again for presidency in the subsequent general elections.
Bwala said this when he appeared on a live programme on Channels TV on Tuesday, described Atiku Abubakar as the “president the country is missing because of his experience and capacity.”
While answering a question on the possibility of his principal to recontest for the post of Nigerian Presidency despite his previous failed attempts, Bwala said, “Sure, he would run. He has the capacity, he has the wisdom, he has the knowledge, he has the energy. And he is a president we never had. Because to be honest with you, if any politician understands the private sector very well, it is Atiku Abubakar and our economy can only come alive if there is a private sector-led economy.”
Atiku Abubakar has contested unsuccessfully for President of Nigeria six times, in 1993, 2007, 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023.
