An important northern elder has commented on the decision of the Northern Leaders Consultative Forum, led by the Dogara Group, to support Atiku Abubakar for President.
Christians in the North will support Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, according to Dr. Tanko Yunusa, a spokesperson for the campaign.
With regard to Dogara and his political party members, Yunusa responded, “They should go and do the public opinion of the Christians in the north.
They will be amazed that what they had was an elitist endorsement, and you can never compare the score that was already generated by them with the result that they would get in the general public of the Christendom in the north.”
“I boldly assert that the people of the north, particularly the Christians and other tribes, have made their support clear and will vote for Peter Obi, not the bought endorsement that the Northern Leaders Consultative Forum has just granted.”

As for the fact that the criteria they used to evaluate the candidate were egregiously statistically and empirically incorrect, he continued, “There is no basis at all to reflect on that.”
In our opinion, if they truly want to test the will of the Nigerian people, they should please go to the streets in Jos, Borno, Gombe, Taraba, and Adamawa itself, as well as Katsina and Kaduna, or in any of the areas in the 19 states of the North
Recall that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the candidate of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), was chosen as the presidential candidate for the 2023 general elections by a faction of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the north, led by former House of Representatives Speaker Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara.
Following the presentation of the technical committee’s report to the group’s members at a public forum held on Friday in Abuja, the group, which includes Christians and Muslims under the banner of the Northern Leaders Consultative Forum, adopted the PDP’s candidate in a voice vote.
