PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar
The Atiku Abubakar campaign may soon be rent in confusion with Babel of voices speaking for it.
Atiku’s party, the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) now has eight persons as spokespersons, according to the national publicity secretary Kola Ologbondiyan, who is one of them.
Others are Buba Galadima, Akin Osuntokun, Osita Chidoka, Nnenna Ukeje, Segun Sowunmi, Kazeem Afegbua and Umar Sanni.
Dino Melaye, who had hurriedly advertised himself as the sole voice of the campaign, was named the eighth spokesperson.
According to a PUNCH report, the eight names were arrived at after a heated argument among the members of the council, a majority of whom were said to have what a source called “vested interests.” (NAN)
