ATIKU ABUBAKAR SET TO DUMP APC AS HE SUPPORT PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN'S REELECTION BID.
The former vice president of Nigeria is said to be under intense pressure from the PDP chieftains who are offering him a chance to run for 2019 with the hope that they will lure him to PDP and support President Goodluck Jonathan's reelection campaign.
With 18 days to go till the election, it seems the People's Democratic Party(PDP) are really pulling all stunts and seizing any opportunity made available in other to keep the presidential sit.
If Atiku decides to leave, it could be a massive blow for APC as it might be seen by the electorate as a sign of incompetency and lack of vision seeing as a major player has left them for an opposition team(sport analogies).
The probability of this happening is quite high as there are rumours going around that Atiku's team feel that they where robbed off the presidential ticket due to lack of support from governors and national leader Bola Tinubu. but this can be seen as a grudge switch(if he decides to leave), people might view him as not loyal and possibly power hungry(but then again its politics, everyone is power hungry).
Although not confirmed yet, sources say that the PDP are trying to get him to join the bandwagon with the promise of the 2019 bid. This has the chieftains of APC worried as their have been complaint that Atiku hasn't been showing adequate support for the Presidential Aspirant Gen. Buhari who he lost the party primaries to.


I like the statement "it's politics,every one is power hungry"
