In a recent statement, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has alleged that there are individuals who are determined to stifle the efforts of their presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in his quest to reclaim what he believes to be his rightful mandate. The party claims that these individuals are the driving force behind a plot to silence Abubakar.
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has made a fervent call for a thorough and all-encompassing investigation into the recent foiled attack on former Vice President Atiku Abubakar by members of the notorious Boko Haram terrorist group.
In a recent development, the esteemed publication DAILY POST has brought to light the apprehension of four individuals believed to be affiliated with the notorious extremist group Boko Haram. These suspects were allegedly taken into custody due to their alleged involvement in a sinister plot to carry out an attack targeting Atiku, a prominent figure, as well as several high-security locations in Yola, located in the state of Adamawa.
In a swift response, the spokesperson of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Debo Ologunagba, expressed deep concern over the recently disclosed thwarted terrorist plot targeting former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.

In a recent statement, Ologunagba made a noteworthy claim regarding the alleged assassination plot against Atiku Abubakar. According to Ologunagba, the opposition party, PDP, firmly believes that the arrested assailants’ confessions point towards a meticulously planned and financially backed scheme to eliminate Atiku Abubakar. The motive behind this sinister plot, as suggested by the PDP, is the unease felt by certain factions who are opposed to Atiku’s determined efforts to reclaim his mandate through the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC).
The party asserts that the sponsors of this malevolent scheme have the ulterior motive of suppressing our presidential candidate, perpetrating violence against innocent Nigerians, and instigating a state of disorder, bewilderment, and lawlessness within the political landscape.
In a recent development, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has raised a thought-provoking question regarding the thwarted attack on Atiku Abubakar, a prominent figure, and sensitive locations in Yola, Adamawa. The PDP is now questioning whether this incident is linked to the recent threats of chaos and anarchy in the country made by the All Progressives Congress (APC). The PDP’s concern stems from the possibility that these threats may be in response to the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPC) upholding the clear provisions of Section 134 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended). This section outlines the mandatory and statutory requirements that must be met for a candidate in a presidential election to be declared the winner.
