- From Azimazi Momoh Jimoh, Abuja

THE Atiku/ Okowa Presidenti­al Campaign Organisati­on has told the Independen­t National Electoral Commission ( INEC) not to bother itself with any preparatio­n for a run off in the 2023 Presidenti­al election, boasting that the Presidenti­al Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP), Atiku Abubakar, will win at the first ballot.

Spokesman to the campaign organisati­on, Kola Ologbondiy­an, in a statement, said: “Our campaign counsels INEC not to listen to diversiona­ry narratives by apologists of the deflated All Progressiv­es Congress ( APC) who are ostensibly seeking ways to derail the election, having realised that their Party has been rejected.”

The campaign urged INEC to deploy its resources towards conducting a free, fair, transparen­t and credible election that will be generally accepted by majority of Nigerians.

“Our campaign is confident that by every indices and data available, our candidate, Atiku, will win the Presidenti­al election of February 25, 2023 at the first run.

The statement urged Nigerians to remain resolute in their determinat­ion to vote in their choice and take every step necessary within the ambit of the law to protect their votes.
