It said the former Vice President would win the 2023 presidential election on the first ballot.
THISDAY has on Tuesday in its presidential election projection stated that there is an increasing likelihood that the first ballot at the February 25 presidential election may not produce a clear winner.
Reacting to this in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja, the Spokesperson of the campaign organisation, Kola Ologbondiyan, said Atiku would win the presidential election without any run-off or by-election as a result of his overwhelming support by a majority of Nigerians across the country.
He said the PDP flagbearer will win the majority of lawful votes across the country and garner the constitutionally required 25 percent of votes in more than 24 States of the federation.
The statement reads: “He enjoys the solidarity and support of the greater majority of Nigerians who were not captured in the indices relied upon by many of the pollsters in their projections on the 2023 Presidential election.
“It Is incontrovertible that Abubakar will win the majority of lawful votes across the country and garner the constitutionally required 25 percent of votes in more than 24 States of the federation.
“It is evident that the massive traditional voters of the PDP across the polling units, wards, local governments, states, and the six geo-political zones are not distracted in their steadfastness to rescue Nigeria from the misrule by voting en masse for Abubakar.
“Also, this army of traditional voters are unrelenting in mobilising the non-partisan voters as well as the undecided across the country to vote for the PDP presidential candidate.”
Ologbondiyan said the PDP is unfazed by the projection made by ThisDay because no other candidate has the political muscle and national acceptability to stop Atiku at the first ballot.
He said Atiku has the capacity, competence, political will, and national acceptability to provide leadership at this critical time of the country’s national history.
The PDP PCO spokesman, therefore, urged Nigerians to remain united and focused on rallying with the PDP flagbearer in the collective mission to rescue and rebuild the nation.
He added: “Our campaign is therefore unfazed knowing that majority of Nigerians across the nation are in consensus to elect Atiku Abubakar as the next President of our country.
“This is particularly, given his proven capacity, competence, political will, and national acceptability to provide leadership at this critical time of our national history.”
