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 the 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.
