2023: Soludo believes I will work if elected president – ​​Atiku

The People's Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar has revealed what Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State told him during his visit.

Atiku revealed that Soludo had expressed the belief that he would work if elected president of Nigeria.

He spoke at the PDP campaign at Alex Ekwueme Square in the state on Thursday.

Atiku also promised to make the port of Onitsha functional if elected president.

Atiku said: "When we arrived today, we visited Governor Soludo and he told me that he believed that I would work when I won.

"Thus, he urged me to rebuild all federal roads and control the threat of erosion in the state, as Anambra is considered the seat of erosion in the country."

“I also promise to dredge the Niger River and ensure that the port of Onitsha becomes functional,” he said.

There has been a stir from the South East to produce the next President of Nigeria in 2023.

Stakeholders had wanted all leading political parties to zone their presidential ticket to the Southeast.

While the PDP presidential ticket went to the North, the Labor Party, LP, has Mr. Peter Obi from the South East as its flag bearer.

APC's Ahmed Bola Tinubu is from the South West.
