We must begin process of healing PDP now, embrace unity – Makinde

Subsidy: Wike backs Tinubu, says moving Nigeria forward requires tough decisions

BREAKING: Tinubu meets Ibori,Wike, Makinde

Former vice president and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has asked his All Progressives Congress (APC) counterpart, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to stop running away from public debates as campaigns for the February 25, 2023 presidential election gathers steam.

In a statement by the PDP campaign spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Friday, Atiku challenged the APC candidate to come out and debate with him on all issues, including governance, policies, programmes and their past.

The PDP candidate alleged
that Tinubu was avoiding de-bates so as not to answer questions surrounding his past.

“We challenge Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu to an unscripted debate with Atiku Abubakar because Tinubu has been dodging debates and even interviews with the media.

“He has been organising private sessions with groups which our campaign believes are all choreographed in his favour. At most of these platforms, he either reads a prepared script or speaks through proxies who respond to questions on his invitation.

“It is perceptible that the presidential candidate of the APC is not prepared to answer questions arising from the litany of allegations surrounding his past.

“But Nigerians deserve to hear from him as a candidate that desires to govern them. He should prepare himself to respond to their questions and make himself available for interviews in the public space. Atiku Abubakar has had several engagements like these, having prepared himself for leadership roles,” he said.

Ologbondiyan also boasted that the Atiku would defeat Tinubu hands down in a free and fair contest.

“Tinubu does not have the requisite support that can deliver him in a presidential election. With the type of rejection that is greeting him in various states, there is no way he can secure the required 25 per cent of votes in 2/3 of states.

“Even in Lagos, Tinubu has lost considerable foothold after being demystified as a failed and oppressive leader with litany of allegations. The traditional support that would have come to his party has now been balkanised by leading parties. So, where will Tinubu draw the support from when the South-West, where he played his politics, has almost become a lost ground?

“Atiku is the only candidate in the 2023 race who has the capacity of winning the consti- tutionally required 25 per cent of votes cast in 2/3 of states across the federation,” he said.
