The Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the February 25 election in Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar has thanked the people of Adamawa State for resisting who he described as ” coupists and enemies of democracy.”
In a message congratulating Governor Ahmadu Fintiri, over his victory at the governorship election which result was finally made today, April 18, by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Atiku said: “thank you to the people of Adamawa and men and women of goodwill for staying the course in resisting coupists and enemies of democracy from having their way.”
He said, in a tweet, that the lesson from the Adamawa election and the cloud it generated “is the need for Nigerians to be vigilant and never give in to anti-democratic forces whose objective is to snatch, run with and undermine the mandate of the people as freely expressed in their votes.
“By the way, it is not yet uhuru as we still have one more major mandate to reclaim, and together as ONE, we shall accomplish the task for the good of our country and its people.”
