Meanwhile, the presidential candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has said that he was confident of winning the 2023 presidential election because the incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari had personally assured him of a free and fair contest.
The former vice president, in an interview with the Financial Times of London, said he met with President Buhari twice on the matter.
“I’ve gotten a commitment from the president personally, because I sat down with him twice; (he said) that even if it is the only legacy he will leave, he will make sure he conducts free, fair and credible polls,” Atiku said.
