Atiku Is One Of Two Main Presidential Contenders- Soludo

Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been described by Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra state as one of the two leading candidates for next year’s presidential election.

He made the comment at the Governor’s Lodge in Awka, Anambra State on Thursday when Atiku visited him before attending a campaign rally ahead of the polls.

“You are one of the two frontrunners for the presidency of Nigeria,” the former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) said.

Soludo had a few weeks back said there are only two contenders for the presidency and described others as “exciting drama!”

He also said the state is open to receiving all candidates who should sell themselves to the residents of the South-East state.

“Anambra should be an open space for all to come and tell the people what they have in stock for them as the 2023 election draw closer”,  Soludo added.
