Nigeria's former vice-president, Atiku Abubakar today reiterated his determination to stay put with the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) through what he termed thick and thin.
Moreso, Atiku restated his commitment to the APC and the success of its presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari and other candidates in the 2015 general elections slated to commence on March 28, 2015.
Apparently reacting to speculations that he was being wooed by presidential flag bearer of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Goodluck Jonathan to return to the PDP, Atiku in a statement by his Media Campaign Office in Abuja said, "I remain irrevocably committed to the APC, as I promised in my concession speech at the conclusion of our party’s presidential primaries, and has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the victory of General Muhammadu Buhari and other candidates of our great party at the general elections."
The former vp contended that for the avoidance of doubt, he is unequivocally committed to the unity of APC and that it will take more than the antics of mischief makers to break that bond.
According to Atiku, "I have backed my words and commitment with my resources to ensure that I bring my influence and support to bear on our party’s march to victory at all levels in the general election.
"That should be enough to shut up mischief makers bent on derailing the APC’s success at the March 28 and April 11 elections."
