Hajia Titi Atiku, wife of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has urged Nigerians, especially people of the South-West, so that a Yoruba woman can be the First Lady in Nigeria for the first time.
She said this while addressing the crowd at the party’s rally in Akure, the Ondo State capital, where she also promised that her husband will defeat Boko Haram and provide scholarships to students.
Mrs Titi Atiku is from Ilesa in Osun State.
She said, “My people, I stand in your presence to tell you that my husband has done it before. The last election was won by my husband but we were robbed. My husband indeed is a Fulani but he is not a killer and we have been together. I taught him our culture and tradition, and he is part of us.
“He as did well for Nigeria.”
On why they need to vote Atiku, she said: “No Yoruba has ever been a First Lady and if we vote Atiku, it is a vote for Yoruba. There is hunger in the land, don’t let the opposition deceive you, vote for all PDP candidates during the election.”
On his agenda, she said, “Atiku will defeat Boko Haram and provide you with scholarships.”
