respectively, the Presidency declared yesterday that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar was on sabbatical at the All Progressives Congress, APC, saying that he would soon return to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, before the elections.
Speaking yesterday when 120 support groups of Atiku Abubakar defected to the PDP to support the re- election bid of President Jonathan, Special Adviser to the President on Political Affairs, Professor Rufai Ahmed Alkali said that the former vice president was a core PDP member and
the defection of his supporters did not come to the party as a surprise, just as he expressed optimism that Atiku would soon. join them in the PDP.
Alkali said, ” Atiku is a PDP man to the
core but he has gone on vacation and I
believe one day he too will come back to
the party. My only prayer is that he comes
back before the general election this year
so that he can support Mr President fully to
ensure our success.”
