His words: “When the history of Nigeria’s democracy is written, Atiku Abubakar's name will feature prominently.
“Over the years, the Waziri Adamawa has proven himself as a democrat, detribalised leader, elder statesman, successful businessman, political icon and philanthropist to the admiration of all and sundry.
“Atiku's search for true democracy has taken him around but in all he is now more prepared to serve the country at the highest level, which I believe Nigerians will reward him in the coming 2019 general election.
“I believe that God will make Atiku emerge as the next president, to come and rescue the nation from killings, poverty and all forms of leadership failure.
“As the whole world celebrates you today, we hope and pray to celebrate victory with you again by February 16th, 2019.”
Comrade Frank prayed that God grant the PDP’s presidential candidate the strength, wisdom, knowledge and understanding, “to continue to be a blessing to his generation.”
