The level of division and distrust between our political geography, economic climate and the social weather are palpable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur country is, therefore, broken along many fault lines, but there is light at the end of the tunnel, because just as our country needs healing, Atiku is available as the balm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a rippling expansion of conflicts. The crisis of confidence between the government and the governed manifests as the current APC administration operates an ideology that fails to provide leadership in crisis, hope in despair, assurance in fear and opportunities in scarcity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is why Nigeria must severe any umbilical chord that ties it to the APC under any disguise. The Party and its operators are set in their ways. They claimed to be harbingers of change, but they have become impervious to change. Like the Bourbons, they have learnt nothing, and have forgotten nothing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObservers of the Nigerian Political landscape will appreciate that Atiku has stood out as a focused leader, riding the storm of a creative tension with equanimity, temperance and accommodation. This is demonstrable leadership. This is the benefit of cognate experience and the gains of reflection, which dictates the appropriate application of attitude to prevailing circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a consumate political strategist, an engaging listener, a disarming deployer of charm offensive and a beacon of hope, Atiku, who bears the flag of PDP, has commenced his campaign, moving round and dispensing the assurance that the years of the locusts are over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a politician who is at home everywhere in Nigeria, Atiku demonstrated his universal home connection by flagging off his Presidential campaign in Uyo on October 10, 2022. The ceremony did not only attract a huge crowd, it was a rainbow coalition of party enthusiasts, who in their varied but creatively combined colours signified the metaphor of Nigeria as a great country of various shades of diversity, but positioned for greatness when all the shades are turned into substance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/10\/16\/how-i-obasanjo-recovered-2-8bn-loot-atiku\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Atiku<\/a> can weave the disjointed parts together. He\u2019s at home with all genders, all tribes, all faiths, all strata and all People. This is why he is focused on working for harmony, inclusiveness, integration, cohesion and nationalism.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigeria can not afford to gamble this time; by making a wrong choice. Good enough, a Presidential candidate has already defined his own self-centred philosophy, focusing on himself and his empire. This self-agenda can only be a recipe for further fragmentation and alienation in a country that requires a fast recovery from narrow pursuits.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA broad minded, broadly connected and broadly accepted candidate like Atiku, who has his ears to the ground everywhere, his nose for good governance and his eyes on socio-economic transformation is what Nigeria needs at this point of its evolution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAtiku is the soothing balm for the healing of the broken trust, the battered economy and the basterdised political fabric of Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Management Committee, Dino Melaye, has said Nigerians can not afford to gamble with the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC again.
