A PDP governor who preferred not to be named has come out to give reasons why Atiku may lose the 2019 elections, according to him; “It seems as if we have conceded the election to Buhari even though the Nigerian people are behind us. The momentum has fallen, the possibility of victory is getting slimmer every day,” He (Mr. Abubakar) did not consult anybody before appointing Obi (former Anambra State governor, Peter),” the governor said. “They (party leaders) are saying we should have sat down to do a proper calculation on where the running mate should come from, whether from the South-west or the South-east. “The thinking among many leaders is that the running mate should have come from the South-west because you have from there people like Tinubu (former Lagos State governor, Bola, of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) who is politically-savvy and (Vice President Yemi) Osinbajo who has integrity and credibility. Why will the people of the South-west abandon Tinubu and Osinbajo to vote PDP?” “People believe that we should have instead given the South-west the vice presidency and make a commitment to hand over power to the south-east after an Atiku presidency.”Obi is considered an APGA person who only defected to the PDP during the (former President Goodluck) Jonathan era because he had nowhere else to go. In any case, what is his electoral worth in the South-East,” Photo Credit: Getty
