Atiku, who was in Enugu State on Thursday, August 16, 2018, told members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state that Buhari's government is filled with liars.

“This government is a government of liars. They promised three million jobs per annum but Nigeria has been losing three million jobs every year,” he said.

Atiku has continued to throw jibes at the All Progressive Congress-led government after he dumped the party in 2017.

Continuing, he said, “This job loss has brought the worst form of insecurity in the country. We are facing challenging times in Nigeria. Today, economy is at its lowest ebb and the greatest challenge is unemployment.”

I am not desperate to be President, Atiku says

Presidential aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, recently said that he is not desperate to be President of the country.

Atiku stated this while fielding questions from newsmen in Benin on Tuesday.

He, however, pledged not to leave the PDP even if he fails to secure the presidential ticket of the party.

Atiku who was the nation’s Vice President to Olusegun Obasanjo, between 1999 and 2007, said he would have become President in 2003 if he were desperate.
