Delta State governor and vice presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa said the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar will include every component of Nigeria into governance to build a stronger and a united nation.
Okowa disclosed this on Friday during the Atiku/Okowa 2023 summit, with the theme: “Unifying Nigeria: The role of youths, religious leaders in the task of repositioning Nigeria”, organised for Christian and Muslim youths in Northern Nigeria. It was held in Bauchi.
Said Okowa: “Atiku Abubakar has put in our manifesto the need to unify our country again. We speak about the labour of our heroes past, people work for the unity of our great country, a country that ought to be very well respected but we have failed to provide the leadership that bring us together to truly develop collectively.
“Atiku Abubakar is one leader that believes that in unity, we can truly strive; we can truly build a nation of our dream. He is one leader that believes that every component of our nation must find a space and is included in the governance process, where Christians and the Muslims are included in the governance process and none is excluded so that we will start to have a path for further development. “Once we have that, we will collectively as Nigerians begin to tackle all the issues of insecurity because we must truly tackle that. But first, we must gain our thoughts and realize that we are one people. As we go through that, we will begin to collectively rebuild the economy of this country because it is in a very bad state.”
