‘The Danger I See In Atiku Is He’s Desperate For Power’
The danger I see in the presidency quest of former vice president, Atiku Abubakar and it is that he is desperate for power.
The above is the submission of respected Nigerian lawyer and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Ebun Adegboruwa.
He has thus warned Nigerians against electing the People’s Democratic Party (PDP)’s presidential candidate into power in 2023.
Speaking via a statement he made available to the media, Adegoruwa, said additionally the main opposition political party, could not be trusted with the constitution of the country.
Making reference to the principle of power rotation which the PDP jettisoned when it mattered to many people, the respected lawyer said the party did so in deference to the political ambition of Atiku.
“In order to satisfy the political ambition of Atiku, PDP ate its own vomit, threw away its own Constitution and rejected decency and justice embedded in the power rotation doctrine. If PDP will not honour it’s own Constitution, how can it be trusted with the Constitution of Nigeria?

“In seeking to succeed Buhari from the same Northern region, Atiku and his supporters do not believe in the plurality and unity of Nigeria.
“In seeking to succeed Buhari who is a Muslim of the same faith with him, Atiku does not believe in the secularity of Nigeria as stated in our Constitution.
“In rejecting the popular decision of the PDP Committee set up to select his Vice-Presidential candidate, Atiku has shown himself to be an incurable dictator, who may be worse than Buhari if trusted with power.

“An Atiku presidency will translate to 16 years of unbroken presidency of the North, which will lead to more agitations and may snowball into disintegration.
“An Atiku presidency will translate to 16 years of Muslim-Muslim presidency, which will facilitate more terrorist attacks, lead to marginalisation of people of other faiths and likely increased persecution.
“Having regard to our collective experience under the inglorious Obasanjo/Atiku regime, an
Atiku presidency will translate into the loss of national assets, the mortgaging of our commonwealth and uncontrolled senseless capitalism, leading to poverty of the masses.
“Atiku cannot be the option for today’s Nigeria. I, therefore, urge all people of good conscience to reject PDP and its leprous ticket.”
