Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, has disclosed reasons
why he stepped down his presidential ambition to support the candidacy of Atiku
Abubakar at the recent presidential primary of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The governor, who was also a presidential aspirant on the
platform of the party before his late withdrawal where he asked his supporters
to vote for Atiku, said it was a sacrifice for Nigerians and Nigeria as a
country.
The governor stated this while addressing a crowd who
welcomed him back at the state government house on Friday shortly after his
arrival from Abuja.
Tambuwal said, “Thank you very much our leaders and
distinguished supporters from all over the country for your support and
cooperation. I must thank leaders of our party here at Sokoto State level and
every level.
“What we have done is for the good of our party and the
country. I appreciate everyone of you that prayed for me and our party. The
sacrifice that I have made on your behalf is aimed at strengthening our party,
our democracy, and, by the grace of God, soft landing our polity.
“This is in
consonance with the teachings of our leaders and the [emulation] of the
examples they have given to us in the past: that we must continue to make
sacrifice for the good of all of us and our country.
“I thank the people of Sokoto State and all my supporters
across the country for their support. Rest assured, we shall work assiduously
for the victory of our party come 2023 general election.”
