200,000 Supporters Of Atiku Care Foundation Decamps To APC, Says He Abandoned Them
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and presidential candidate of Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) has lost over 200,000 members of his Atiku Care Foundation to All Progressive Congress (APC) and called on all youths across the nation to do the same.
They supporter who accused Atiku of abandoning them declared their support to the Presidential candidate of All progressive Congress Candidate, Muhammadu Buhari.
The spokeman, Comrade Sunusi Ababai who made the announcement to the public said:
“For several years now, we have been working hard for the development of Atiku Care Foundation. A lot of promises were made when we started.
“They told us that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar needed a platform to reach out to the masses at the grass root. We were committed because there were a lot of programmes from healthcare delivery, education, entrepreneurship, and youth and women empowerment.
“We started with our own money. Nobody gave us a dime because we believed that Atiku meant well for the nation; but unfortunately, we were abandoned at a time structure of the Foundation became solid. We were waiting all these while for Atiku to finance the programmes, only for us to hear how he splashed Dollars in Rivers state just to win the PDP presidential primaries.
“We worked for him without money, but he did not even appreciate our efforts and contributions. We believe that if such a person is given the mandate, he will disappoint Nigerians. So, our support for President Buhari is based on our personal conviction that he is the Messiah Nigeria needs now.
“We call on Nigerians, particularly, the youths to rally round President Buhari and give him the mandate to correct what the PDP-led government has plunged this country into for over 16 years they held on to power.”
