Internet Buzz Created by Atiku’s Wife’s “Vote APC” Error
|The internet has gone crazy over a video showing Titi Abubakar, the wife of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, urging Nigerians to “vote” for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
While criticizing the APC for breaking its promises to Nigerians, Titi made an obvious error by urging citizens to support the party in the general election in 2023.
She said: “By February 25th, everyone should come, and if you haven’t picked up your PVC, go get it. We should vote for the APC since it made a lot of country-enhancing promises, but we can already see how things are going.
Festus Keyamo, the spokesman for the APC Presidential Campaign Council, reacted to the video by defending the PDP presidential candidate’s wife.
Sincerity be damned, this was undoubtedly an error of phrasing, but we don’t think it’s fair to create a mountain out of a molehill, particularly when you swiftly corrected yourself, stated Keyamo.
