Dele Momodu Asks Atiku To Congratulate Buhari
The publisher of Ovation magazine, Dele Momodu, has said that the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, should concede defeat and congratulate his opponent, President Muhammadu Buhari.
Dele Momodu in on his Tweet handle on Tuesday said : ‘I have had phone conversations. I’m assured that @Atiku is a Democrat and convinced he will do what is right for Nigeria. I’ve no doubt that he is a listening leader and going forward, whatever advise I have for him around this election will be given privately…
My dear Reno, I’ve read your tweet. Pls let me say a few things for the record:
- I did not work for Atiku, I only volunteered like I did for Buhari in 2015. I never interacted with his campaign office
- The PDP Chairman, Uche Secondus publicly rejected the results yesterday…
- The last time I met or spoke to the Wazirin was before PDP primaries but I supported him and still do with all my heart
- My tweet was not meant for his private consumption but for his huge and passionate followers like me…
- I learnt many lessons from the June 12 saga!
- I felt the tension being generated by the rejection of the polls even before the end of the exercise
- I consider it pertinent to avert the imminent danger occasioned by the reckless misadventure of the Buhari government and its operatives during these elections…
- My intervention is only an appeal and an advice to the Wazirin and his supporters. You gain more when you embrace peace when people expect you to fight
9. Atiku is free to head to court but I doubt if Buhari will obey any outcome, if unfavourable 10. Where then do you go? GOD.
