Atiku Asks Nigerians, ‘Are You Better Off Today Than You Were Four Years Ago?’

People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has challenged Nigerians on the kind of questions they need to ask themselves before they turn up to vote in the 2019 general elections. He also urged Nigerians to focus on getting the country to work again.

The presidential candidate who is contesting against President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at next year’s presidential election took to his Twitter account (@atiku) on Friday, November 9, 2018, to challenge Nigerians to ask themselves these questions:

“The most important question in this election is ‘Are you better off today than you were 4 years ago?’ Are we richer of poorer? This is why our primary focus is on getting Nigeria working again.”
