The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has said he cannot wait for the 2019 presidential debate.
Atiku said this after his running mate took on four other vice presidential candidates at the vice presidential debate put together by Nigeria Elections Debate Group (NEDG) and the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON).
The former vice president also commended his running mate for “laying out our vision to get Nigeria working again”.
