The spokesperson for the Atiku, Okowa Presidential Campaign
Council, Daniel Bwala, has opened up on why his principal, Atiku Abubakar, was
away in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, UAE, amid the ongoing presidential
campaigns.
Bwala made the disclosure while fielding questions on Arise
Television’s Morning Show programme on Wednesday.
He said Atiku took time away to reflect and refresh again as
it was during the holiday.
The former lawmaker also added that anybody has the right to
go anywhere in the world that he wishes to go during a holiday.
“Actually we were the first political party to commence a
campaign. In fact, beginning with the institution of the campaign council and
the commencement of the campaign, within a short period, we covered quite a
number of places. And we have broken our campaign approaches to campaigns in
rallies and campaigns in town halls campaigns with consultations.
“But you must remember also that we are guided by our own
calendar and not the calendar of another political party. And based on our
calendar, you would have noticed that from the 21st of last month or
thereabout, we had a holiday, and it was this period that he (Atiku) took time
out to be away and reflect and refresh again.
“In campaigns, at least you retreat once in a while to
re-energise, reinvigorate yourself and refresh yourself with ideas on how you
can go forward. During holidays, anybody has the right to go anywhere in the
world that he wishes to go.
“The campaign is constituted by not just the presidential
candidate, the vice presidential candidate has been on the ground engaging.
Then also we have campaign officers,” Bwala said.
