Why Atiku, Okowa Pulled Out Of Town Hall Meeting- NTA
Atiku Abubakar, Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and his running mate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State, said due to conflicts they were pulling out of a town hall meeting organised for presidential flag bearers.
One of the co-organisers of the town hall meeting, the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) disclosed this development via a tweet on Tuesday.
The other co-organisers of town hall series titled ‘The Candidates,’ include Daria Media in partnership with News Central, among others.
The tweet did not, however, state the nature of the conflicts.
It would be recalled that Atiku had been absent at events meant for presidential candidates, instead would ask his running mate to represent him at a programme put together by the Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD) in collaboration with ARISE Television.
Atiku did not attend at an event, organised by Women Radio 91.7 for major presidential candidates at the NAF Conference Centre, Abuja.
