The Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media to the FCT minister Nyesom Wike, Lere Olayinka, on Thursday stated that ex-Vice President and PDP 2023 presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar’s intention to run for the presidency ahead of 2027 will be his seventh vain attempt.
Lere Olayinka made this comment on his Facebook page. He berated Atiku, asking him to stop deceiving himself and giving himself the impression that he would win the presidential election after six failed attempts.

Reports revealed that Wike’s aide made this while reacting to Atiku’s recent comment on Wednesday that he had no regrets about not selecting Wike as his deputy in the 2023 presidential election, implying that his boss(Wike) will ridicule Atiku’s 2027 presidential effort and pursuit .

Recall that Atiku in a pre-recorded television interview stated that he was presented with 3 names as options for running mates and he picked number one, former governor of Delta state. Read story here:https://naijaeyesblog.com/politics/atiku-says-he-dont-know-if-he/
