Atiku Abubakar Break Silence Over Presidential Debate With President Buhari
Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said on Friday night, December 14, that he was keenly looking forward to next month’s presidential debate, moments after watching the vice-presidential debate in Abuja.![]() |
President Buhari and Atiku |
“I watched with pride as Peter Obi laid out our vision to get Nigeria working again, I can't wait for the presidential debate.”
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and three other running mates in the five-person debate on Friday, December 14, focused mainly on the economy for about two and a half hours.
Obi was widely praised for demonstrating a good grasp of statistics, and Osinbajo received commendations for his ability to focus on what his government had done as against what the PDP did in its 16 years in power from 1999 to 2015.
I watched with pride as @PeterObi laid out our vision to get Nigeria working again. Can’t wait for the presidential debate. #2019Debate— Atiku Abubakar (@atiku) December 14, 2018
According to the medium, the organisers said that they have not received indications that Buhari would take part in the debate, but noted that Abubakar’s public utterances have given them confidence that the main opposition candidate would be available.
Buhari did not honour invitations to debate while running as the main opposition candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2015.
It was gathered that concerns that Buhari would shun debate again this cycle prompted some PDP supporters on social media to have Obi boycott last night’s debate.
They argued that Buhari is trying to ride on the energy of Osinbajo, rather than present himself for a similar debate as the most consequential person on the ticket.
Meanwhile, we had previously reported that ahead of next year's general election, 5 candidates slugged it out at the vice-presidential debates of the 2019 elections at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel in Abuja.
The debate was put together by Nigeria Elections Debate Group (NEDG) and the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON).
