PDP primaries: Festus Keyamo describes Atiku as familiar customer

Festus Keyamo, Nigeria’s Minister of State for Labour and Employment, has described Atiku Abubakar as a familiar customer.

IDOMA VOICE recalls that Atiku emerged the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Saturday.
Atiku polled a total of 371 votes to defeat his closest rival, Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State who garnered 237 votes.

The minister said this on his Twitter page.

Keyamo wrote: “Congratulations to Atiku on his emergence as the candidate of @OfficialPDPNig for the 2023 Presidential election.

“Unlike in 2019, we face different permutations and different circumstances for the general elections this time around. We welcome this familiar ‘customer’ to the race.”
