Nigeria Never In Such A Bad Shape Since Civil War – Atiku

The Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has lamented the alleged wretched state in which the nation has been plunged into by the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.

According to Atiku, Nigeria has never been in such a bad shape as it is today since the Nigerian Civil War between 1967 and 1970.

The former Vice President charged Nigerians not to allow President Buhari steal their votes in the 2019 presidential election, urging them to work with him to rescue the nation and get it working again.

Atiku made the call while speaking at an interactive session with some youth groups, social media influencers and bloggers in Abuja on Sunday.

He said the alleged “desperate attempts by the Buhari Presidency to manipulate the electoral process, including the foisting of President Buhari’s relation to head the collation of Presidential election results as well as hounding of judicial officers, are all geared to enable President Buhari steal votes in the election.”

“President Buhari has stolen your jobs. He has stolen your rights. Don’t let him steal your votes. They are preparing the ground to steal your votes. I know that Nigerians are ready to ‘Get Nigeria Working Again’, but don’t let President Buhari steal your votes,” the presidential candidate was quoted as admonishing the groups in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan.

“Nigeria has never been in such a bad shape as we have today, not even during the civil war. Things are really bad. We have never had the economy this bad and the nation has not been so insecure as we are under the Buhari administration. That is why we all must work together to rescue our nation and make it work again,” said Atiku.
