In his acceptance speech after he was pronounced as the PDP candidate for the 2023 presidential election by the Chairman of the Convention Planning Committee, Senator David Mark, Atiku Abubakar extended a hand of fellowship to the defeated aspirants and pledged to work with them to ensure victory for the party.
He described the primary as one of the freest elections to be conducted by the party, saying, “Today marks another milestone in the process to consolidate our democratic gains.”
Atiku said if elected President, he would unify the country, deal with insecurity and revamp the economy.
He accused the All Progressives Congress government of polarising the country, stating, “I pledge to unify the country that is why I refer to myself as a unifier. Unity is very important because the government of the APC has disunited Nigerians completely.”
