Tinubu replies Atiku’s “only those who win polling units for PDP will get contracts.”
Festus Keyamo, the spokesperson for the Bola Tinubu, Shettima Campaign Council, has responded to a statement made by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, telling party members who want contracts and appointments in his administration to ensure the party wins in their polling units.
On Thursday, Keyamo expressed his feelings via his verified Twitter handle.
According to reports, Atiku made the remark on Wednesday during a town hall meeting with party members and stakeholders in Abeokuta, Ogun State’s capital.

“The only way, as far as I am concerned; if I am president, if you come and say you want a job or you want a contract, I will ask you to let me have the result of your polling booth and that is what I am going to direct to everybody because unless we do that, we will not win the elections,” he said.
Keyamo, on the other hand, stated that Atiku could never change his true nature.
He pointed out that the PDP candidate had forgotten about the Public Procurement Act, which governs the award of government contracts.
He wrote, “A leopard cannot change its skin. He is already promising contracts to political allies, forgetting that there is a law called the Public Procurement Act. Mr. SPV!”
Tinubu replies Atiku’s “only those who win polling units for PDP will get contracts.”
