The Director General of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Aminu Waziri Tambuwal on Wednesday disclosed that arrangements have been completed for the commencement of the 2023 campaign of the party and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
The exercise, scheduled to kick-off in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state capital, according to Tambuwal, puts the PDP ahead of its rivals who are yet to put their acts together.
Observing that the PDP is the only political party that has inaugurated its campaign council, the Governor told journalists after inspecting the campaign office in Abuja that the PDP remains the party to beat across the country and even in the South-East, contrary to insinuations that the party’s gain in the area has reduced.
“By the grace of God, we are flagging off the campaign this coming Monday, at Uyo Akwa Ibom state. All arrangements have been made to have for a very successful flag off of the campaign.
“Our campaign is going to be issue based. We’re going to be marketing our candidates based on the programme that we brought out, which is generally solution based. Atiku is very well prepared to provide the required leadership for this country at this time.”
“We’re not involved in a war of attrition. It is a political disagreement and we’re working to resolve all of those issues. We ‘re very prepared to go into the South East and we believe that we’re still the number one candidate for the South East and we are going to consult everywhere in all of the six political zones in this country,” the Governor stated.
