SUPPORT GROUPS THREATEN TO DUMP ATIKU
[Ambassador Enobong Inyang (National Coordinator of Atikudom 2019); Mr Godwin Enemona (National Coordinator of Democracy Development Network); Alhaji Gambo Jagindi (National Coordinator of Atiku Global Support Group (AGSG); and Princess Kemi]....
Our attention has been drawn to an article written by some disgruntled and misguided persons published by some online and mainstream media outfits, alleging that we are threatening to dump the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), and its Presidential candidate , Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
While it would have been normal for us to ignore this attention-seeking individuals peddling falsehoods and bare-faced lies; but for the record and to keep the teeming millions of supporters of His Excellency Atiku Abubakar from being fed with the wrong information, hence, the need for this rejoinder to completely dis-associate ourselves from the alleged write up.
In the said write up, it was alleged that no fewer than 469 Atiku Support Groups have accused the Atiku Presidential Campaign Office (APCO) of neglect and threatened they would withdraw their support.
It was also said that the convener of the group, one Mr Amb. Enobong Iyang, popularly known as Don P, and others, threatened to withdraw their support for Atiku if urgent steps were not taken to address their grievances.
Furthermore, it was stated that the group specifically accused the leadership of APCO of lackadaisical attitude and neglecting the efforts of the support groups despite all the resources they have spent, and efforts made in promoting Atiku to the electorates in the last one year.
It was further alleged that the groups regretted that inspite of their efforts, no recognition has been accorded to them, hence the need to dump Atiku Abubakar and the PDP.
Based on the fore-going, and to set the records straight, we wish to state categorically that this entire write up is a pure figment of the writer's imagination. This is the handiwork of the enemies within, who were trying to tarnish our image, our support groups, and Atiku; because how could we have been with Atiku before emerging the PDP candidate, and now that success is round the corner, then we would be thinking of dumping PDP, and its Presidential Candidate. This is a lie from the pit of hell, and at best character defamation.
We were never, and will never be part of any group(s), or any covert idea to withdraw our support from the PDP and its Presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
We therefore wish to reiterate and state strongly that we, and all our support groups, remain ardent supporters of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar; as we have never been part of any meeting where "dumping of Atiku" was deliberated or discussed.
To this effect, we call on all supporters of Atiku to disregard this purported write up and focus more on the task of voting Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in as the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the 2019 general election.
