PDP presidential candidate for the February 2019 presidential
election, Atiku Abubakar, has described President Buhari as a failure
who has never run any successful business enterprise in his life.
Atiku said this while replying the comment made by the spokesperson
of the APC, Yekini Nabena, who in a statement released, questioned
Atiku’s source of wealth.
Atiku in his response released by his media organization, reminded
the APC that the former president has run more successful business
enterprises unlike President Buhari.
“We wish to remind APC’s National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena,
that Atiku Abubakar is not like President Buhari who has never run a
successful private business throughout his life.Unlike Muhammadu Buhari, Atiku Abubakar is an expert job creator who
has founded many successful and thriving businesses including the
American University of Nigeria, Yola; a microfinance bank that has moved
45,000 families out of poverty and Rica Gado, a livestock feed company
that has significantly reduced instances of herdsmen/farmers clashes by
providing a business-friendly solution instead of asking Nigerians to
give up their lands for cattle ranching or face death, as the Buhari
government did.” the statement read
Atiku urged the Buhari Presidency and the APC to mention even one
successful private endeavour that the President had successfully run.
“By private enterprises, we are not referring to 150 cows that never increase in number, year in year out,” the statement read
