Atiku Reveals What He’ll Do If He Loses 2023 Presidential Election

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar has submitted that after the 2023 election, he may not run for political office again regardless of the outcome.

The former Vice President who has already made five unsuccessful attempts at the presidency, is making a sixth attempt in the 2023 race.

Atiku in a recent article published by Financial Times was quoted to have said in Lagos after a campaign rally that he would continue to pursue the ambition of becoming Nigeria’s president as long as he is alive and healthy.

“It is a life-long ambition and as long as I’m alive and strong and healthy, I will continue pursuing it,” he was quoted to have said.

The PDP candidate however dropped another contrary hint shortly after, stating that 2023 may be his last shot at the presidency.

“I’ve come to the last stage now. I don’t think after this I will run again,” he said.
