So, even when we are upset about the inexcusable low that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has brought us in the past seven years, we must ensure that we insulate our politics from the corrosive effect of the ruling party\u2019s failures. A society cannot progress if its politics is convoluted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221; Dear friend and compatriot, the journey that we have signed on to undertake together is not one that we can accomplish by threading the inglorious path of exclusionist politics. This journey, our campaign, is a rescue mission for our great country and it is a mission that must involve all Nigerians.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221; So, while our opponents might think that there is an easy road to victory in divisive politics, we must get the message across to them that Nigeria has seen the worst shade of exclusionist politics and the road ahead is the path of inclusive and unifying politics. That is what we stand for.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are the Unifiers and the Bridge-builders and we represent the future of a peaceful and prosperous Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221; Let me therefore remind you again that our talking points at the moment, and as we inch towards the campaign period shall be our policy document,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"m_-4419919366980519303ymail_android_signature\"><\/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 candidate, former vice presidential Atiku Abubakar, yesterday cautioned against beclouding the political space with primordial sentiments ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
