Former Vice President of Nigeria, Namadi Sambo, has described the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, as the most adequately prepared presidential candidate ahead of the 2023 general election.

Sambo said this at the public presentation of books on Atiku and the inauguration of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said: “Atiku Abubakar is no doubt the candidate who can discuss Nigeria’s challenges and also have the capacity to address them.

“Atiku is a political driver who not only has experience to drive a car but also knows the rules on how to rescue Nigeria.”

The former Vice President, however, said it is important for all hands to be on deck as the campaigns commence.

“Cooperate fully with one another and ensure victory at the end of the day,” Sambo added.

Also speaking at the event, the former governor of Anambra State in the Second Republic, Chief Jim Nwobodo, said he was optimistic that Nigerians would vote for Atiku in 2023.

Nwobodo, who described Atiku as a true Nigerian, noted that voting for him would not be a mistake.

“We are looking for a true Nigerian president who will unite us. And I believe only Atiku stands that chance.

“With Atiku, we will have a united Nigerian. Nigeria will be better off with him,” the former governor added.
