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

He said that such political commitment would boost the party’s chances in the presidential election.

“I am ever ready to work towards the success of the party if level-playing ground is provided during the party primaries .

“Whether I become the presidential candidate or not, I want to assure you that I will always discharge my obligations to ensure the success of the polls.

“I and all the presidential aspirants met with the National Working Committee of the party on Wednesday where we signed an affirmation to support whoever emerged as the party’s flag bearer.

“I am ready to align with the decision.”
