Mohammed pointed out that it will be unrealistic for Nigerians to be expected to forget so soon, the 16 hectic years of PDP administration in which Atiku was a major player.

And as an individual, Mohammed said, Atiku has refused to change from his elitist contradictions which have along proved detrimental to the ordinary people.

“Besides, at no time has Atiku ever shown any genuine interest in matters coming from or happening to northern Nigeria, a place he remembers as home only when he needs votes. Atiku Support Groups In Gombe Quit, Shred Membership Cards in support of Bola Ahmed Tinubu
