The Spokesman for the Atiku Campaign, Mr. Segun
Showunmi has released a statement regarding a song released by the
ruling All Progressives Congress, APC titled 'Atiku is a thief'.
The Statement read;
We
need to restate as directed by His Excellency Atiku Abubakar,
Presidential Candidate of The PDP that the 2019 election should be issue
based, deviod of slandering and name calling.
We hold the view that unguarded narrative hurts the country and further divides us as a people.
Some
of the consequences of previous mismanaged campaign efforts is perhaps
the reason why their is little or no internal cohesion with its
attendant security challenges.
Elections comes every 4 years in
our country and if great effort is not taken, we could hurt the country
and its people needlessly and invariably our democracy.
We have
to sign up to these ideals, we can campaign without recourse to hate
speech, liabel, lies, undue criminalization of people and each other.
On
our part we have signed up to running an issue based campaign and if it
is not too hard for the Muhammad Buhari administration and the APC to
understand, we call on you to do the same.
There is greater value
in doing so. Nigeria is the most populous black nation on earth and we
owe it to ourselves and the black race to be above board.
We are
trying to present our idea on how the country should be led and not
interested in anything else. And by so doing, set Nigeria and its people
on the path of working again.
