Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential candidate, said at a campaign in Asaba, the capital of Delta State, that the state’s long-standing support was a factor in his selection of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate.
Atiku claimed that his five-point programme will guarantee that the economy has “a commanding height” when he addressed PDP supporters on Tuesday that the campaign team was not in the state to campaign but to express their thanks and empathise with them in every way.
If elected, he said, Nigeria’s foreign investment will increase to levels comparable to those seen when the PDP’s 16-year rule ended in 2015.
“We are here because of the support we have received and have received all along, particularly myself. In all my political career, from 1999 to date, Delta State has never failed me,” the presidential hopeful said.

“I want to promise you that I shall not betray the trust of Delta State and in fact, the Niger Delta sub-region altogether. That is why as my modest contribution to your support over the years, I decided to take one of you as my running mate.
“As you know, a running mate is always a stepping stone. Therefore, it is up to you to give Governor Okowa the massive support that he needs to show the people of this country that you are committed to your own future.”
“We had the biggest economic growth until we became the biggest economy in Africa. We had no problem about foreign exchange,” he said.
“We had no problem about scarcity of goods. We had no problem about high inflation. We had no problem about prices of goods and services.
“For God’s sake, why would you vote for another party that has now suffered us in the last seven to eight years? Please, say no to APC. APC, down! PDP, up! PDP, victory!”

Informative article, just what I needed.
Great info. Lucky me I ran across your website by accident (stumbleupon). I have book-marked it for later!
Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
