Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, Wednesday frowned at President Muhammadu Buhari’s 800 metres trek in Daura, noting that exercise is not a yardstick to measure ones intellectual ability to put Nigeria in its right perspective.
The Presidency yesterday said the 800 metres trekking embarked upon by President Buhari from the Eid-ground in Daura to his private residence is an indication of his fitness to seek re-election in 2019.
Disclosing this through his twitter handle, Atiku Abubakar opined that he jogged more than a mile everyday and it would be shameful of him to boast with it or ask Nigerians to vote for him because of it.
I regularly jog more than a mile & exercise, but it will be pedestrian of me to ask Nigerians to vote for me because of that. I want my party – the PDP, and Nigerians, to vote for me because I WORK not because I WALK. I will work to create jobs. I won’t walk to create an illusion

Atiku Abubakar is hoping to become the President of Nigeria after contesting in previous elections without success. He will have to slug it out with other party hopefuls at the PDP primaries which is set to come later in the year.
