Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has claimed he is more interested in a better than becoming president.
Atiku stated this while speaking at an affirmation ceremony for new defectors in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) on Saturday in Lagos.
He was the guest speaker at the programme and was represented by Prof. Ola Olateju of the Achievers University, Owo, Ondo State.
The former PDP candidate, along with some like-minded opposition politicians, recently resigned his membership of the party to join ADC.
Atiku said he was not desperate to lead the country but was very eager for a better, secure and prosperous country.
“Atiku Abubakar’s plan is to build a better Nigeria. So, it’s not about him being the president. It’s about having a better government, a good government, that will be able to deliver for Nigerians.
“It’s not a personal thing for him, and that’s why some of us are with him. It’s not about Atiku having to be president at all costs.
“ADC, to us, is not a political party. It is a movement, a movement of Nigerians for a better Nigeria,” Olateju spoke on behalf of Abubakar.
