We Came Here for a Presidential Debate and not a Candidacy Debate - Atiku Spits


19th January, 2019|Politics|ArchMedia Inc

 The People's Democratic Party Presidential Candidate took to his twitter handle @atiku to state reasons and apologized to Nigerians for his absent in today's Presidential debate organized by NEDG and BON.

In his words and I quote;

We came here for a Presidential debate, not a candidacy debate, and I, Atiku Abubakar cannot challenge or question an administration where the man at the helm of the affairs of the nation is not present to defend himself or his policies.

Afterall, you cannot shave a man's head in his absence. I do not believe in attacking a man who is NOT here to defend himself.

With respect to my fellow candidates, Fela Durotoye, Oby Ezekwesili, Kingsley Moghalu & to moderator Mark Sugar & with apologies to Nigerians here & at home expecting an interesting debate, I regret I will not be able to go on with this debate due to President Buhari's absence.

I however challenge President Buhari to choose a date and time for a debate where he will be present and I will be there, hopefully with the other candidates as well.

Thank you and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
