Former
Vice President Atiku Abubakar has revealed how President Goodluck Jonathan
repeatedly appealed to him to dump the All Progressives Congress, APC, and
return to the ruling Peoples Democratic Party.
Atiku said
the president pleaded with him three times, once during a surprise midnight
visit to his house.
The former
VP made the revelation in an interview with the Hausa service of the BBC,
during which he also explained why he has not been very visible in the campaign
rallies of his party’s presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari.
Mr.
Abubakar said he turned down the personal request of President Jonathan to
return to the PDP on three separate occasions.
He said
the last was in Abuja last Friday when the President paid him a surprise
midnight visit.
