The 2023 Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has vowed to keep contesting as long as he's healthy. Atiku spoke during an interview on the Hausa service of the Voice of America in Abuja. Asked if he will contest again, Atiku said: “Of course, I will keep contesting again and again as long as I am alive and healthy. “Even the former US President Abraham Lincoln contested seven times before finally winning.
Atiku has run for the presidency six times but has been on the ballot as a presidential candidate on three occasions — 2007, 2019, and 2023. Abubakar said he is consoled by the fact that former United States President Abraham Lincoln did not win the presidential vote on the first time of asking. He also spoke about the crisis in the Peoples Democratic Party , saying the party needs to be united and forge alliances with other political groups to win the presidential election in 2027.
