Why I'm not Visible in Buhari's Campaign -Atiku

                          

Former Vice President Abubakar Atiku gave reasons for not been visible in Buhari presidential campaign,he said the campaign secretariat has refuse to invite or consult with him in his programmes, in an interview he granted to the Hausa Service of the BBC on Friday

“I campaigned for late Shehu Yar’Adua twice successfully,” he said. “We did that of Abiola, Obasanjo and for myself.


“I am not a light weight politician, whoever needs my presence should contact and extend invitation to me.”
Atiku said he has already made his feelings known to the Director General of the Buhari campaign organisation, Governor Rotimi Amaechi.
“They need to check the strategy they are adopting and I made that clear to the campaign DG, Rotimi Amaechi and I told him that if you don’t consult or invite me, you will not see me,” he said.
Atiku, however, said although he had “issues and reservations” with the way the campaign was being run, he expressed the view that it was not too late to make amends.

The former vice president also said he was confident the APC will win the elections.
“APC will win because everyone is tired with the current administration,” he said. “So, despite the challenges in APC, change will surely come.”
