Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar Says He Is Not Desperate To Be President

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar says he is more interested in a better Nigeria than being president.

Abubakar said this while speaking at an affirmation ceremony for new defectors in African Democratic Congress yesterday in Lagos.

Abubabar, who was the guest speaker at the programme, was represented by Professor Ola Olateju of the Achievers University, Owo, Ondo State.

The former PDP candidate, along with some like-minded opposition politicians, recently resigned his membership of the party to join ADC.

Abubakar said he was not desperate to lead the country, but was very eager for a better, secure and prosperous country.

Reports have it that some PDP, LP party bigwigs proclaimed their membership of ADC at the ceremony.
