I’ll reclaim my mandate, Tinubu’s govt is temporary – Atiku 

The presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party in the just concluded February 25th election, Atiku Abubakar says he will reclaim his mandate from President Bola Tinubu through court verdict.

The former Vice president said Tinubu’s government is temporary, adding that it was stolen in alleged electoral infractions.

Atiku spoke during PDP stakeholders’ meeting for elected officials of the party in Bauchi State on Saturday.

He said, “You are there to serve as a formidable opposition to this temporary administration. Based on the results announced by the INEC and pending the determination of electoral challenges in the court, our members-elect are not the majority in the National Assembly.

“So, for the time being, they have to prepare to work as an effective, constructive opposition while also preparing for possible roles of the majority party when the cases are resolved. A Government in-waiting, so to speak.”
