Former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar in a statement issued yesterday, urged members of the APC to emulate the unity of all the presidential contestants after the party’s Lagos primaries and support the president to form his government and get to work.
Speaking against the backdrop of the defeat of APC’s candidates, Senator Ahmed Lawan and Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila for the Senate presidency and House of Representatives speakership. The duo was defeated by Senator Bukola Saraki and Hon. Yakubu Dogara who had defied the party to vie for the posts. The victory of Saraki and Dogara has plunged APC in crisis as the party battled to contain the fallout. He denounced the increasing determination of some people to draw a wedge between him and the president over the matter.
Atiku said: “In politics, it is a mistake to expect fixed outcomes. As the president has done, let’s all come to terms with what has happened in the interest of the system and move on. “Suffice it to say that the new administration should be allowed a smooth take-off and be allowed the atmosphere to deliver.
Atiku also warned the party leaders against constituting themselves into opposition to Buhari. He told party chieftains to bury their differences and support the Buhari administration.
