2023: APC presidential campaign council says Atiku does not mean well for Nigeria
The APC presidential campaign council had warned Nigerians to be wary of the 'sugar-coated' promises of Atiku Abubakar, the PDP presidential candidate.
In a statement sent to Legit.ng on Sunday, December 11, Bayo Onanuga, director of media and publicity of the APC presidential campaign council stated that Atiku's promises are hinged on desperation to gain power at all cost.
According to him, the PDP should be eternally shameful about its appalling record in governance between 1999-2015, adding that its attempt to re-write history won't work.
