2019: Why Atiku is shunning power blocs — Investigations
Atiku whose ambition to contest the 2019 Presidential election is public knowledge has literally turned the beautiful bride of various support and power blocs within the party.
Only a few days ago, the PDP Northern Elders and Leaders Forum gathered at a popular hotel in Abuja where it was expected to meet with the former Vice President.
However, the Turakin Adamawa did not turn up; a decision carefully taken in order not to give himself away as a supporter of one group against the other.
Vanguard correspondent gathered that the Northern elders and leaders would have used the opportunity of the meeting to seek Atiku’s support for one of the chairmanship aspirants, Professor Tunde Adeniran.
