Atiku Gets Set for PDP, Presidency
Ex-Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, is not letting off any chances in his touted move to replace President Muhammmadu Buhari in 2019.
Atiku, who last Friday, dumped his party, All Progressives Congress (APC), is yet to make public his next port of call.
However, pictures of branded Sienna buses which were sighted in Hola, ADAMAWA state on Sunday, indicate that Atiku maybe headed for the PDP.

His title of WAZIRI ADAMAWA was also blazoned on the vehicles indicating the he may have kick-started moves to run for the top office.
A source close to Atiku indicates that he is not leaving any stone unturned in the pursuit of his dream.
According to the source, “He is spending heavily to sustain his strucute. He oils it very well every day”.

If PDP hands Atiku their presidential ticket on a gold platter it would simply just tell me they have not repented from the greed and duplicity that led to their previous downfall. The man has dumped PDP at least twice, and they would choose him above consistently committed stalwarts like Sule Lamido and Ahmed Makarfi?
