The presidency has been a lifelong goal for Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential candidate.
In order to achieve this, Atiku swore to keep fighting until he is elected president of Nigeria.
The PDP presidential contender told Financial Times that he would continue to pursue his goal as long as he was still alive and fit.
“It is a life-long ambition and as long as I’m alive and strong and healthy, I will continue pursuing it,” Atiku said.
The former Vice President is one of the top candidates vying for the 2023 presidential election.
It’s widely believed that the Waziri of Adamawa has been vying for the presidency since 1992 when he stepped down for MKO Abiola.
During the last presidential election, President Muhammadu Buhari defeated him to retain power.
However, mixed feelings have continued to trail Atiku’s 2023 presidential pursuit, as some believe that he has no chance while others feel he is better positioned to win.
