The Convener of Save Nigeria Group (SNG), Pastor Tunde Bakare on
Sunday congratulated Alhaji Atiku Abubakar on his emergence as the
People’s Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate.
According to Bakare, Atiku’s victory would make the 2019 election keen and interesting.
Bakare, Senior Pastor, Latter Rain Assembly, spoke to newsmen in
Ikeja after making a speech on Nigeria’s 58th Independence in his
church.
Bakare said the emergence of Atiku was a welcome development as it
meant that the battle for the presidency would be a tough contest
between him and President Muhammadu Buhari.
“I congratulate him (Abubakar), he makes the issue in 2019 more robust.
“It is not going to be an eaglet versus an eagle but an eagle versus
eagle: an old eagle versus new eagle and probably both of them old
eagles.
“I wish president Muhammadu Buhari the best in 2019.
“He has the power of incumbency and he will do his best to win the
election, but Atiku is not going to take No for an answer when the two
forces collide in the election,” he said.
