Atiku/Okowa 2023  For PDP in 2023 it is a settled matter. Our flag bearers are Waziri Atiku Abubakar, GCON, and HE Dr Ifeanyi Okowa. We have gone through a transparent and credible process to arrive at this.  As loyal party men and women, it is time to consider what is in the best interest of our country and our party. Naturally, we must have our individual preferences and we all campaigned vigorously for our choices but the matter is now settled. There is no need to brood nor start to act irresponsibly, neither is it the time for disloyalty and crass opportunism against the party except you never really loved the party.

The umbrella is big enough to accommodate everyone of us as Nigerians and as party men and women. What is before us is a situation tha...
