NAFA congratulates Atiku

A group, Nigerians Asking For Atiku (NAFA), has congratulated the former Vice President of Nigeria, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, for emerging as the 2019 Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate on Sunday in PortHarcourt, the Rivers State capital.

National Coordinator of NAFA, Dr Talatu Silka, in a statement made available to journalists, said the victory of Atiku has rekindled the hopes of Nigerians in their collective quest and desire to rescue Nigeria from socioeconomic impoverishment.

“NAFA joins millions of Nigerians to thank all PDP delegates that voted Atiku to emerge as the presidential candidate of the largest political party in the black continent, PDP.

“Our country, which is at the verge of socioeconomic collapse under Buhari-led APC National Government, shall be rescued under Atiku-led PDP Federal Government come 2019.

“The coast is now clear for a greater Nigeria; and all hands must be on deck to pull down APC propaganda government so as to start a new beginning of socioeconomic remodelling and lay solid foundation for the new Nigeria of our dreams, going forward.

“Atiku’s excellent leadership qualities has greatly endeared him to the hearts of Nigerians coupled with his detribalized posture on national issues, good governance initiatives and his strong desire to restructure Nigeria.

“NAFA shall join all other Atiku groups nationwide and PDP to mobilize eligible voters so as to ensure Atiku’s landslide victory in the forthcoming presidential election in 2019,” Silka said.
