Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar would do a single term of four years if elected president of Nigeria on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in 2019 and support a successor from the South East in 2023, sources close to him has told pointblanknews.com.
Although Atiku officially neither has declared for the PDP nor for the Presidency, it is believed that the plan for a single tenure is part of his game plan to woe the South East of Nigeria.
The source who would not want to be named since he is not authorized to speak on the political strategies of the former Vice President told Pointblanknews.com that the decision by the Turaki Adamawa to seek just one term is hinged on his desire for equity, fairness and justice.
According to the source, the former Vice president is “pro Igbo presidency and would do all it takes to make that happen in 2023. He is not power hungry as some may want to believe.”

“Atiku believes in fairness, equity and justice. It would be amounting to injustice to other region that has not produced the Presidency if he seeks to do eight years. The South East is yet to produce the presidency since the return of democracy in 1999 so it is only natural to give the South East the chance.

According to the source, Atiku is planning reaching out to South Eastern leaders with the view to assuring them of his desire to do a single term and douse any doubts that may arise.
By 2023, Atiku who recently dumped the All Progressive Congress, APC, would be 76 and the source insist the former Vice President would rather go into retirement.

The APC, is also planning ahead of 2023. The Party, according to a source would back Buhari for a second term and then in 2023, support the South East to produce the presidency. Already former Governor of Abia State, Orji Uzor Kalu has indicated interest to run for the presidency in 2023 on the platform of the APC.

Lol...sounds more like the GEJ promise - That's the kind of promise a guy makes to a girl on top of the bed.

Stop trying to insult our intelligence abeg.

He's a traitor

Absolute power corrupt absolutely

Now, what will Orji Kalu do?

What Igbos really need is not the presidency but a kind of autonomy to do thing their own way. Like not needing to go to Abuja to beg Fashola so that we can build our roads and bridges. Not needing the FG to guarantee our foreign loans needed for development. Not needing the FG to give us 10% of electricity generated...which has seen many factories closed in the SE., etc, etc, etc...These are more beneficial than Igbo presidency which will end up like Yoruba presidency and Ijaw presidency, which did nothing for their region...

...but if Igbos must have a president, I prefer Prof Soludo or Ngozi Iweala. Orji and Okorocha will end up like Obj and GEJ.

Fake

Yinmu. And they may believe him sha.

The most you look the less you see......Atiku want to use South East head.

delishpot:
Yinmu. And they may believe him sha.

...but you believed APC?

Stingman:


...but you believed APC?

No!!!! Not even GEJ

delishpot:


No!!!! Not even GEJ

Me too. I don't believe in him either!

Can anything good come from the North?

BMCs would not see anything good in Atiku...lol. look at all them!!

But if Nigerians are eventually faced with the option of a Buhari and an Atiku...Nigerians would gladly vote Atiku.

Buhari is a bundle of disaster.

sarrki:
He's a traitor

Do you know the meaning of traitor? Any English wey una see, una go say repeat am anyhow...without understanding...

This guy's desperation is taken to another level. A black man promising one term of presidency is like fowl saying they want to start giving birth instead of laying eggs

whether one term or 4 terms sending buhari back to daura is a task every patriotic Nigerian must embark on.

Nigerians should be more concerned with throwing buhari out and not whether the north or anyone stays for 2 or 3 terms.

We dont need your nigeria president.
