2019 Election: Atiku Visits Ekweremadu, Explains Choice Of Obi by Gistpeeps: 6:21am On Nov 28, 2018 |
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, on Monday visited the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, to seek his understanding over the choice of Mr Peter Obi as his running mate. On the entourage of Atiku were the Director General of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council, who is also the President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki; National Chairman of the party, Uche Secondus; and the National Organising Secretary of the party, Col. Austin Akobundu (retd.). It was learnt that the visit was meant to appease Ekweremadu, who had hoped that he would be the natural choice for the position. It was gathered that the visitors asked for Ekweremadu’s support and explained to him that Obi was picked in the interest of the zone in particular and the nation in general. A source said, “He was told that Obi does not have any corruption case against him and that he does not belong to any faction of the party. “He was also told that Obi’s emergence has further raised the acceptability level of the PDP across the country.” Meanwhile, the party has scheduled its National Executive Committee meeting for Thursday in Abuja. Our correspondent gathered that the meeting would approve the full composition of the council and also vet its budget for the campaigns. Secondus confirmed the inauguration of the campaign council to our correspondent on the telephone. “Yes, we are meeting on Thursday and the campaign will be inaugurated same day,” he said. https://all-gists..com/2018/11/2019-election-atiku-visits-ekweremadu-explains-choice-of-obi.html 15 Likes 3 Shares |

Why the need to always explain or convince the SE'ers on the choice of Obi? It all makes Obi seem like someone who's a persona non grata or so. Haba 12 Likes |

Are they still on this obi issue... They better support him. He's the closest they've had to Aso rock since 1999.. No matter what happens , if either Tinubu, osibanjo or fashola shows interest after Buhari complete his term, I'll vote them...you know why?? They are my kinsmen. Igbo people should learn how to play politics in an entity like Nigeria. 37 Likes |

Ok, let me get this straight, so Atiku, a party deserter, came back to win PDP presidential nomination and what does he do, he picks a running mate from another party that is a competitor to PDP. What happened to PDP loyalists? And Atiku thinks they will just be happy about it. Lol, ok, just wait till the elections, PDP loyalists will be the ones who will sabotage Atiku by themselves. But it’s none of my business *sipping my tea* 10 Likes 1 Share |

faaz24: My friend shut d furck up. There is nothing wrong with favouring people you know during award of favours as long as merit is not relegated to the background. Hypocrites like you will do the same thing if not worse, if you were in Atiku's position as privatization chairman .just get the furck outta here. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

The ousting of Buhari in 2019 must take precedence over or person greed or ambition if not we have failed , this is something greedy people like Tiubu fail to understand.. Tinubu is the like the proverbial boatman that is helping Hades to cross the lake because Hades promised him gold when they reach the other end .. 9 Likes 1 Share |
