The preisentail candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has urged electorate to use their Permanent Voter Card, PVC, to permanently, retire Atiku Abubakar in the 2023 general election.
Tinubu described the Peoples Democratic Party, presidential candidate as ungrateful politician who has outlived his relevance in the chase for presidency.
The former governor of Lagos state in company of his running mate, Kahim Shettima, made the statements on Saturday, at what was termed; “Mother of all rallies,” at the Teslim Balogun Stadium, Surulere, Lagos State.
During his speech, Tinubu said, “I’m indeed very grateful to God Almighty, to all of you people, to the members of Buhari’s cabinet. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
According to him, “This election will be about brooms revolution. You can’t kill me as you did kill others.”
Tinubu took a swipe at Atiku, describing him as a veteran aspirant who should go home and rest.
He said, “I know one man, Atiku, he has been contesting since 1999, he has outlived his relevance in the chase for presidency. He ran under PDP, under Action Congress, AC, we gave him the platform but they repaid us with evil. Tell him to go and sit at home. Use your Permanent Voter Card, PVC to retire him this time around in 2023. I’m back.”
Tinubu who spoke partly in Yoruba sai, PDP ruled for 16 years without any meaningful impacts, adding, “all the APC Governors have decided to support me. We shall move together to the Villa.
“Atiku contested in SDP, he contested in PDP; he contested in ACN when we rescued him from Obasanjo. Now he is contesting again in PDP. He should go home and rest.
“Atiku has been running. Use your PVC to vote him and his party out. Use your votes to retire him permanently this time. We must never again allow the rapacious and visionless gang of Peoples Destroying People to come near our commonwealth again,” he said.
