Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) did not give Atiku Abubakar ticket. He bought it with money.
Even the southerners could not resist his Dollar. And that is the capacity the party needed.
His choice of candidate was based on whom he can control or manipulate.
He knew that he will not be able to control Wike.
BAT bought his ticket with money and threat.
There was need to keep to agreement, else the cat will be let loose. And his choice of candidate was based on who is ruthless enough to champion the Northern muslim votes.
The supporters of the above two are the long term structures that have kept us in the dark while the world is making progress.
And they want the evil to continue.
They use their structures to collapse the national structures. And they are boasting about those structures even to our faces.
Obi picked Labour Party ticket based on his integrity, financial produnce and outstanding leadership prowess.
And he went for Datti who possess similar qualities.
He needed someone who will look into his eyes and say no.
Because he acknowledged that he doesn’t know it all. He believes in team work.
And his supporters are the people without structures, the downtrodden, the poor masses, the beggers and the labourers, those that are cursed to Labour till death, those that the structures are trampling upon.
He is not standing for himself.
He is standing for the masses.
He is not the one contesting.
The masses are contesting through him.
He is not standing for any specific tribe or religion. He is standing for all tribes and religions.
He is the hope of the common man.
With him, Nigeria will be great again.”
