The 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, says he isn’t done running for president despite the fact that he has contested and lost six times.
Speaking in an an interview on the Hausa service of the Voice of America in Abuja, he vowed to continue to contest for presidency as long as he has the health capacity.
According to him, “I will keep contesting again and again as long as I am alive and healthy.
Even the former US President Abraham Lincoln contested seven times before finally winning.
However, given the current state of the PDP, it is clear that a single-handed effort will not suffice to win the election. Strong support and collaboration with other parties are required.”
Atiku has made six attempts to be the President of Nigeria, in 1993, 2007, 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023. He is expected to be 81 by the next presidential election in 2027.
