Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has challenged his counterpart in the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to an hour-long Television interview ahead of the 2023 elections.
Atiku disclosed this in a statement while reacting to the allegation of the Tinubu Campaign Organisation that he was not prepared to lead the country because of some of the issues discussed during his last Television interview.
Kanyi Daily had earlier reported that Tinubu’s campaign had described Atiku as a “pathological” liar who asked the former Lagos State governor to be his running mate in 2007 but he refused.
Responding to Tinubu’s claim, Atiku’s media adviser Paul Ibe said;
‘We would like to challenge Bola Tinubu to subject himself to an hour long interview, like the Waziri did, and if he is able to be as articulate and mentally present as our candidate, then he can talk. Until then, we will only want to remind him and his yes men that they are not in a position to point fingers when they have not sat on the hot seat.”
Ibe added that the former vice president was “amused to read the knee-jerk response from the Tinubu Campaign Organisation to the wave-making interview granted by Atiku Abubakar”.
