The Media Adviser to Alhaji Abubakar, Mr. Paul Ibe, on Sunday said it’s attention has been drawn to a statement circulating in a section of the media,
to the effect that Atiku Abubakar, Presidential candidate of PDP in the 2019 election plans to lead a street protest.
The protest, he said is in the event that the election petition tribunal rules against his him and his party on the issue of a server for the Independent National Electoral Commission.
In a statement, Ibe said, “I wish to emphatically state that such a statement did not emanate from Atiku Abubakar or his privies.
“It is the work of mischief makers who want to mar his spotless pro-democratic record and lay the ground work for their threatened actions against him on false charges of being a threat to national security.”
For the avoidance of doubt, the media adviser said Atiku believes in the rule of law and in the laws of the country.
In his almost four decades in politics, he has never taken action or spoken words against democracy and will not start now, he added.
According to him, Atiku and his team have confidence in God and thus call on those bent on mischief to have the fear of God and retrace their steps
