AHEAD of the 2015 Presidential
election, former Vice President Atiku
Abubakar Saturday, said that the incumbent
President Goodluck Jonathan must present
himself for the primary election of the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
According to him, PDP must carry out a
transparent and fair process of primary
where the president will participate like
any other party member, just as he was
quick to add that President Jonathan was
entitled to seek the party ticket in 2015.
He said that by foreclosing free and fair
process of selecting its presidential
candidate, PDP might be sending the wrong
message to Nigerians about its commitment
to conduct free and fair elections for the
entire country.
The former Presidential aspirant on the
platform of PDP however rejected the
party’s policy of “consensus arrangement”
and “adoption” rather than transparent
elections to produce candidates for all
elective offices, including the
presidency.
