Atiku’s Wife In Benin Seeks Women Votes For Husband
Wife of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Dr. Jennifer Atiku Abubakar, has asked the women in Edo State to vote for the husband in the February 16th Presidential election noting that her husband is the right man for the job.
She addressed thousands of PDP women supporters at a town hall meeting in Benin City, the Edo State Capital.
Atiku urged Edo Women to focus on reaching out to youths and women in their locality because they have the highest voting population, according to the Independent National Electoral Commission.
She noted that the segments with the lowest voting population which are old people are the ones throwing out abuses.
While urging them to engage civil servants whom she said do not go out to vote on Election Day, Mrs. Atiku told them not to be deceived by name calling and mudslinging against her husband.
According to her, “There is a lot of name calling and mudslinging to snatch your vote. It is the women and youths that vote the most. That is why Alhaji Atiku has provided certain percentage for youths and women in his cabinet.
“We will waste our rights if we do not go out to vote. You need to vote for the right candidate. We need to mobilise and come out in full force. Do not waste your time on frivolous leaders.”
The lawmaker representing Ovia Federal Constituency, Barr. Omosede Igbinedion, said the forth coming election was about survival of the country.
Omosede urged the women to mobilise their neighbours and friends to go out and vote as well as encourage others to collect their PVCs.
State Chairman of the PDP, Chief Dan Orbih, urged the women not to accept loan in exchange of their PVC’s.
