The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) celebrates former Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and PDP Presidential Candidate in the 2023 Presidential election, one of the founding fathers of our great Party, H.E. Atiku Abubakar, GCON (Wazirin Adamawa), as he marks his birthday today.

Atiku Abubakar is a selfless, compassionate, humble and people-oriented leader; a unifier, forthright politician, democrat and global Statesman who continues to dedicate his intellect, energy, resources and abilities towards the unity, stability and economic development of our dear nation.

The PDP and Nigerians across board continue to recognize Atiku Abubakar’s record of performance in the service to our nation, particularly as the Chairman of the National Economic Council under the Obasanjo/Atiku-led PDP administration between 1999 and 2007, during which our nation achieved massive and unparalleled national productivity in all sectors to become one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

His outstanding leadership qualities led to the overwhelming support and massive votes from Nigerians across all walks of life for him and our Party in the 2019 and 2023 Presidential elections, which mandate was unfortunately subverted by undemocratic forces, resulting in the current sorry state of affairs in our nation.

Our Party extols Atiku Abubakar for his resilience as the people’s leader as demonstrated in his unrelenting passion and quest for good governance, economic prosperity, accountability, equity, justice, fairness and strict adherence to the demands of the Rule of Law and democratic tenets in the overall interest of the wellbeing of all Nigerians.

On this auspicious occasion, the PDP family prays to the Almighty Allah to grant Atiku Abubakar more wisdom, sound health and strength in the service of our dear fatherland and humanity.

Congratulations and Happy Birthday, Your Excellency.

Hon. Debo Ologunagba
National Publicity Secretary
