Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar will contest the 2023 presidency.
This announcement was made by his son, Adamu Atiku Abubakar during the presentation of the score card of his ministry to mark the first year of Governor Ahmadu Finitiri of Adamawa State in office.
Adamu Atiku Abubakar is the state’s Commissioner for Works and Energy.
His words: “Personally, I don’t see anything wrong with my father contesting for the presidency.
“In 2023, my father will be aspiring to the number one office in the land because he has been an astute, strategic, master politician for almost four decades.”
It would be recalled that Atiku was the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the last general election.
He lost the 2019 election to President Muhammadu Buhari.
He contested the result of the election which he said was fraught with irregularities in the court, but lost.
