Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has indicated interest in contesting the 2023 presidential election.
In an event held at the International Conference Centre, Abuja on Wednesday, the 75-year-old said he will make Nigeria work using a 5 point agenda.
“Under my presidency, I want to focus on five key areas: Unity of Nigeria, Security, Economy, Education and devolving more resources and powers to the federating units.”
“We will operate a liberal economy that allows small businesses to grow through lower taxes for small businesses and low-income earners,” said Atiku.
Atiku whose declaration is titled #OneNigeria preached unity, saying “Though we all have different lives and goals and desires we all want ONE FUTURE. Nigeria is a land of possibility. There is no challenging background that will make any Nigerian give up. I am a living witness to what is possible in Nigeria.”
Atiku who contested the 2019 presidential elections but lost to sitting President, Muhammadu Buhari, expressed optimism that this time is different.
“This time around is different; our journey will not end at the poll; we will get to work and rescue Nigeria. I invite every Nigerian to join me in this mission to save our dear country. I have never been this optimistic, and with your support and God’s grace, we will get to the promised land. I know as one we can rescue Nigeria. I know as one we can get it done.”
