PDP Presidential Candidate Rallies Former Legislators Ahead of Campaigns

The Preaidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar is intensifying consultations with diverse groups to advance his cause of winning the 2023 presidential election in Nigeria.

After a meeting with former presiding officers and leaders of the House of Representatives at the Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja Nigeria’s capital, Atiku said the meeting afforded him a double advantage of seeking their support in building a grassroots network for the upcoming campaign.

Atiku Abubakar said the meeting was also important as “it provides a legislative insight into some of the reforms we shall work through. Altogether, it was a well-spent afternoon, and I thank them all for honouring my invitation”.

Meantime, the PDP Presidential candidate has appointed the Commissioner for Information in Delta State, Mr. Charles Aniagwu as one of his spokesmen for the 2023 presidential campaigns.

A press statement signed by Atiku’s Media Adviser, Paul Ibe notes that Aniagwu’s appointment takes immediate effect, “with the responsibility, among others, to keep the electorate up to speed with happenings in the presidential campaign”.

Aniagwu is a veteran broadcaster with over two decades experience in the media industry.

He joins other appointees who had been announced earlier as spokespersons to the campaign.
