The Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) has given further insight into the kind of administration the standard bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, would run if sworn in as President on May 29.

“We had APP, AD ministers, and the country became one. This provided the peace and stability that we want. This is what I intend to do. PDP will set up a government of national unity. It is one of the ways to unite this country. Every section or geo-political zone will be carried along in appointments into every sector. We will unify this country.”
