2023: Why Atiku Left APC For PDP – APC Chieftain Reveals Real Reason

The National Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the South-West, Isaac Kekemeke, has said the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party,(PDP) Atiku Abubakar, left APC because he was frustrated after his inability to understand the party.

Naija News reports Kekemeke said this in Ibadan on Wednesday at a press briefing where the formation of some committees of the APC in the South-West was announced.

Kekemeke also noted that the APC would show Atiku who boasted that the PDP would take over South West in 2023, that some of them in the party know the PDP and its strategies very well.

He assured all aspirants that the party remains strong in the South-West and will win more states to its fold in the region in 2023.

He also urged those who contested and did not win elective positions doing the party primaries to join the rest of the party to work for the success of the party’s candidates in all elections in 2023.

Kekemeke said, “If His Excellency, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and presidential flag bearer of the PDP thinks he knows the APC because he was here, my answer is, many of us in APC knows the PDP more than he thinks he knows the APC.

“Our National Chairman ( Senator Adamu Abdullahi) was a governor under PDP, he knows PDP, Senator Iyiola Omisore, knows the PDP, I know the PDP, I was a pioneer secretary of the PDP member Constitution Drafting Committee of the PDP under Chief Bola Ige, Senator Teslim Folarin knows the PDP. One of the reasons he ( Atiku) left the APC is because he couldn’t understand the APC.”
