The election day plans are driven by data, technology, tested process and most importantly, our people on the ground in the entire 176,606 polling units in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPDP is fielding candidates for all 109 senate seats and 360 house of representative seats. Every single person on the PDP ticket is committed to making the country great again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have seen first-hand what 8 years of APC has done to our people and we are determined to right the wrongs of the last 8 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo doubt Nigeria is currently moving at great speed in the wrong direction. But together, we can pull the brakes and reverse the direction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur party, the PDP has done it before, and the records are there for every Nigerian to see.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlhaji Atiku Abubakar\u2019s manifesto has shown the plans for Nigerians and we, as a party, pledge to deliver on our promises to all Nigerians when you elect us back into office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCome out to vote on Saturday, and let us open a new, prosperous page in the book of our national history.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have spent time and resources training all our agents across the 176,847 polling units. We have also trained all the agents in the 8,809 wards and 774 local governments. Our agents will ensure nobody your vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have campaigned across the length and breadth of the nation, and not just spoken to Nigerians about what our plans are, but listened to you tell us what problems you want us to solve for you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and vice-presidential candidate Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa both know the pains ordinary Nigerians are going through because of the ruinous and poorly implemented policies of a poorly. We, as a team are ready and willing to work to ensure a better country for us all\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Hon Ologunagba pointed out that members of the G-5 Governor\u2019s of the party are all stakeholders who have benefitted from it and would not do anything to hurt the party\u2019s interest.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that the differences between the PDP and the G-5 Governors can still be resolved, saying, \u201c24 hours is too much in politics for issues to be resolved\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking about the party\u2019s presidential candidate and his campaign, the National Publicity Secretary said, \u201cThrough the course of the campaign, Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Ifeanyi Okowa energetically traversed the nooks and crannies of our country, engaging various segments of Nigerians in diverse fora; consultative meetings, interactive sessions, Town Hall meetings, faith-based platforms, media interviews and political rallies articulating their plans, solutions and selling the message of hope to Nigerians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAtiku Abubakar continues to demonstrate that he is a Pan-Nigeria leader with the required experience, capacity, integrity, stamina, presence of mind, commitment, sense of duty and readiness to lead our nation at this critical time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn contrast however, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its embattled Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in their vacuity, arrogance and entitlement mentality treated Nigerians with unpardonable disdain by refusing to engage the people in interactive sessions, debates and media interviews. \u201cThis is a clear indication that the APC and its Presidential Candidate are incapable and have nothing to offer Nigerians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile Atiku Abubakar continues to engage Nigerians on issues that are critical to our nation; including National Unity and Stability, Security, Restructuring, Infrastructural Development, empowerment of the people through diversification, Asiwaju Tinubu abdicated because he has no solution to the myriads of problems brought upon our nation by the APC which he admitted to have brought into office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince his emergence as the Presidential Candidate of the APC, Asiwaju Tinubu and the APC have not been able to engage in campaign on issues rather their focus have been on individuals and irrelevances, even display of unseriousness and comics\u201d, he said.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, has declared that it is fully ready for the Saturday\u2019s presidential and National Assembly elections.
