'Are you better off today than you were 4 years ago?' - Atiku asks Nigerians

Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has challenged Nigerians on the kind of questions to ask before they turn up to vote in the 2019 general elections.

Atiku, a former vice president, is the candidate of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), the main opposition party, contesting the presidency against President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the February 2019 polls.

Atiku Abubakar took to his Twitter account (@atiku) on Friday, November 9, 2018, to challenge Nigerians to question themselves on if the current administration has improved the nation for the better in the past 4 years of Buhari’s administration. The PDP candidate urged Nigerians to focus on getting the country to work again.

In his tweet, he posted, "The most important question in this election is 'Are you better off today than you were 4 years ago?' Are we richer or poorer? This is why our primary focus is on getting Nigeria working again."

As the 2019 polls draws closer, one must understand that Atiku was pivotal to Buhari's electoral victory in 2015. However, he dumped the APC to return to the PDP in 2017 as a result of the ruling APC mismanaging the nation's democracy and disregard for the rule of law.

However Atiku has pledged his commitment to get Nigeria working again by rolling out plans to reposition the country’s economy and making Nigeria regain its high status among the comity of Nations in order to attract foreign direct investments (FDI).
