Atiku congratulates Nyako, PDP

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has urged all stakeholders in the Adamawa State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to unite behind Governor Murtala Nyako who was re-elected for his second term in office in Saturday's gubernatorial election.

Reacting to the outcome of the election in a statement by his Media Office in Abuja, the former Vice President who cast his vote in Jimeta-Yola said   with the election now concluded, all PDP members should work together as one family (just like they had done prior to the election) for the overall progress and development of Adamawa State.

According to him, they should put behind them personal bickering and acrimonies and join hands with Governor Nyako for the advancement of Adamawa State.

He said Adamawa State is a classic example of Nigeria's complex ethnic, cultural and religious diversity, assuring that the nation stands to benefit from the success that will be achieved in this regard.

For this reason, he pointed out that Governor Nyako needed all the goodwill, cooperation and support of all people of Adamawa State in the challenges of undertaking the task of governance.

While congratulating Governor Nyako and the PDP in particular the Adamawa State chapter on Governor Nyako's re-election for a second term in office, Atiku Abubakar advised him (Nyako) to carry all stakeholders along rather than isolating or alienating any groups however small.

As Nigeria's rainbow party, the Turaki Adamawa said the ruling PDP should lead the way in terms of internal cohesion, unity and harmony, adding that this should be of the immediate concerns of Governor Nyako.
