2023: PDP leading aspirant reveals why he is yet to visit southeast ahead of presidential primary

The campaign directorate of one of the frontline presidential aspirants of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mallam Mohammad Hayatu-Deen has explained why his campaign train is yet to visit the southeast geo-political zones to solicit votes from delegates.

Legit.ng reports that the campaign office in a statement signed by Sani Umar said that three different attempts were made and scheduled visits were arranged by the Mallam Hayatudeen campaign team to visit the southeastern states but were unsuccessful because of the peculiar circumstances existing in the region.

Attempts were made twice to pay a visit to the region the previous week which failed principally because of the sit-at-home directive. Our third attempt also was unsuccessful because it coincided with the PDP scheduled primaries that engaged most of the delegates and party leaders in the region.

“In most of the states visited, the delegates expressed joy at the quality of Hayatudeen’s profile, his intimidating credentials, his uncommon leadership quality, his clean records devoid of corruption and above all his grasp of the economic challenges facing the country and his wherewithal to tackle them headlong if given the opportunity to serve the country as its president.
