2023: Defeat in the elections will be the end of PDP – Atiku

Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has claimed defeat for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, could spell the end for the party.

Atiku has therefore charged the PDP to do everything possible to win the 2023 Presidential election.

Atiku, who commended the party for its opposition role since 2015, noted that the next general elections offered the PDP opportunity to return to the heart of political governance of the country.

He stated this during an interactive session with members of party’s Board of Trustees, BoT, at the Yar’ Adua Centre, Abuja, to crave their support for his aspiration.

“I am worried and you should be worried too that if we do not win, it means we will be in opposition again for the next eight years. By the next eight years, I don’t know how many will be left in politics and it may even ultimately lead to the death of the party because people gravitate, particularly in developing countries, towards governments. Ordinary people naturally gravitate towards government. So this is a very, very crucial and historical moment in history, for our survival. I want you to think about it.

“We are now at a crucial moment in this country. Many of you here, it is either we retire together or we move on together”, he told the BoT members.
