The Atikulated Youth Force (AYF), a youth mobilization campaign for PDP Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar has congratulated Dr Oby Ezekwesili on her exit from the 2019 presidential race and urged her to take a look at the Atiku Plan because it already addresses a lot of the issues her now defunct presidential campaign is passionate about. The group acknowledged her passion and respectfully called on her to join and support the Atikulated movement.

In a statement released by
Stanley Ebosie on Thursday morning, the group said while it disagrees
with Ezekwesili on several issues, it is time to get everyone on the
moving train to get Nigeria working again.

“We respectfully call
on her, to take another look at the Atiku Plan which details a blueprint
of his vision for Nigeria. Atiku Abubakar has made a commitment to
support and push for devolution of power to the lower tiers of
government. Let’s consider a Local Government that has more autonomy,
and the effect it will have on the improvement of basic education and
primary healthcare. Let’s consider how the people of a State will hold
their State governments more accountable seeing that the government has
more control of the resources and assets available to it, surely this
will help the fight against corruption, promote competitive development
and accountability.

“We recall that the first time Ezekwesili had
an opportunity to showcase her abilities in the governance of Nigeria,
it was under a PDP administration that she is now disgruntled about.
Wouldn’t she rather return to her first love – the PDP and help rebuild
Nigeria under an Atiku presidency? We equally recall that she earned her
public sector reform credentials as ‘Madam Due Process’ under the PDP
administration of Obasanjo and Atiku as President and Vice President,
respectively. What changed?

“Whatever coalition Ezekwesili is
seeking to build with other ‘third force’ candidates, 22 days to a
presidential election is dead on arrival. The only plausible thing to do
at this point is support Atiku to beat Buhari at the polls. Anything
short of this is an ego trip that risks everything about the future of
Nigeria on the altar of ineffectual self-glorification. We earnestly
await Ezekwesili’s return to reality and when that happens, we would be
excited to welcome her to her true home – the PDP. Even her former boss
and mentor, former President Olusegun Obasanjo is already Atikulated”,
the statement said.
