The People’s Democratic Party, PDP, yesterday flagged off its presidential campaign in Uyo Akwa Ibom State capital, and sought the support of Nigerians to return to power at the center in 2023.
The various stakeholders, present and former leaders of the party who spoke at the event, reiterated their assurance that they would address the challenges bedeviling the country today especially insecurity, economic downturn, unemployment if returned to power.
“We lifted Nigeria from the bottom to the top. We became the biggest economy in Africa, we had peace, we made progress. But when Nigeria said they wanted change, they voted for change in 2015. But what we have seen is poverty, insecurity, lack of jobs and disunity. Earlier in his welcome remarks, Gov Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom state and Chairman of PDP presidential campaign council reassured Nigerians that Atiku/Okowa when elected into power would restore the country’s lost glory.
“We promise Nigerians that as we flag-off this campaign today we flag-off hope, mission to restore, rescue Nigeria. We have a team that will restore this country to it’s lost glory. Nigeria is a great nation of a great people and we must elect people who have strong pedigree in managing successful enterprises to lead this country.

” Nigerians are hungry, suffering from all sorts of sickness. Nigerians cannot sleep in peace because of insecurity, Nigerians are getting more and more divided. Let us join hands to rescue Nigeria. Nigerians PDP will not disappoint you”
