2019 presidency: What South-East Senators said of Obi as Atiku’s running mate

The Chairman of the South-East Senate Caucus, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, on Sunday declared that the combination of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi as his running mate can pull the country out of its “present horrendous predicament.”

Abaribe said the ticket of Abubakar and Obi was the “finest choice available.”

In a statement he personally signed, the lawmaker described Obi as an embodiment of discipline with positive attributes towards good governance.
He expressed hope that PDP will emerge victorious in 2019 with the choice of Abubakar and Obi.

He said “The ticket of the duo of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Mr Obi represents the finest choice available and one that reflects the high pitch push by Nigerians for total economic and political reforms.

“The present hopeless situation of fear, despondency and hunger in the land, which is occasioned by a seemingly rudderless and clueless government requires experienced and steady hands in the saddle. Of course the Atiku/Obi ticket presents that radical choice capable of pulling the country out of her present horrendous predicament.”

He commended the former Vice President for picking Obi, who hails from the South-East.
