Atiku stated this in Minna while addressing party supporters at the PDP headquarters.

He stated that he would support whoever becomes flag bearer of the PDP for the 2019 presidential election if he is not elected.

The former Vice President, however, expressed optimism of winning the presidential ticket of the party if a level-playing ground was provided.

Abubakar called on the leadership of the party to demonstrate high sense of political maturity in conducting free, fair and transparent presidential primaries.
