Atiku Abubakar, presidential
candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says he has nothing to do with
any foreign media consultant.
On Saturday, David Pride, a
motivational speaker had announced on Twitter that he had been hired to serve a
social media consultant to Atiku.
“Excited to announce that I have
been contracted as the social media consultant for 2019 Presidential Candidate
of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar. His vision to get Nigeria Working Again and taking
care of the less fortunate is one I support and I’m excited to,” Pride had
tweeted.
But reacting via a statement
issued on his behalf on Monday, Paul Ibe, his spokesman, Atiku described Pride
as an impostor.
“A certain David Pride who claims
to have been contracted by the Atiku Campaign and announced himself as a media
consultant is an impostor unknown to His Excellency, Atiku Abubakar,” the
statement read.
“Please disregard, his claim is
false.”
The PDP hired Brian Ballard, a
top US lobbyist, ahead of the 2019 elections. The influential lobbyist has
President Donald Trump as one of his clients.
