Why I'm Absent At Buhari's Campaigns --Atiku

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has explained why he has not been
attending the campaigns of the All Progressives Congress presidential
candidate, Gen.Muhammadu Buhari.

Atiku, in an interview with BBC Hausa, in the early hours of Friday,
said he had not been invited to the APC presidential campaign rallies.

He said he would not attend the campaign if not invited. The former
vice president was an aspirant in the presidential primaries in which
Buhari emerged the winner.

He said, "There are minor irregularities in connection with the system
being followed by the campaign team of General Buhari but we are
trying to correct it. They need to check the strategy they are
adopting.

Atiku said he had informed the director of the Buhari Campaign
Organisation, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, about the issue. "I told him that if
he did not invite me, I will not go," he added.

Meanwhile, the former VP also denied reports that he was planning to
return to the Peoples Democratic Party.
