Oga Atiku, Your utterances and what has developed in your axial [NORTHEAST as Boko Haram] is making most wise people wittering. Therefore, if you don’t become or rather your presidential dreams is look as some one poring water in the basket. Let us see your effort in stopping the unrest as BOKO HARAM.
Ride on sir!!! Never give up because quitters never WIN.
Abraham Lincoln tried and failed severally but his never say die attitude, His love for his country and His hope of a better America kept him going till a positive result was achieved.
You are a dogged fighter and statesman who is ready to bring better life and good governance to the people of Nigeria.
Atiku is our choice because #ANigeriaForAll is all we need
