Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has urged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State to close rank in order to wrestle power from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state in 2023.
He spoke during a consultation meeting with leaders and delegates of the Lagos PDP at the Ikoyi residence of Chief Olabode George.
He said, “As you all know, the major theme of my campaign is unity. But I think we should share the same gospel of unity with the PDP in Lagos State.
“This call will require shifting of position and common understanding. But this is the sacrifice that we all have to make to ensure that the PDP wins Lagos State.
“I have talked to leaders and elders of the party inside and I made a similar call to them. I am here with all of you too who are esteemed members of our party to please give the necessary support to our leaders and elders in making sure that the party is united.”
