Dele Momodu, publisher of Ovation magazine, says Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is the hope Nigeria needs.

On Friday, the PDP presidential campaign council appointed Momodu as its director of strategic communications

Momodu, in a statement on Saturday, urged Nigerian youths not to despair nor lose hope in the nation.

He said Atiku “already knows what to do” when he wins the presidential election in February 2023.

Momodu praised the virtues of Atiku as a rags-to-riches tale of endurance and perseverance.

He noted that Nigeria’s younger generation should derive a sense of optimism and belief in better days ahead.

“In Atiku is a story of hope despite the current challenges we face as a nation. I humbly urge our youths and all Nigerians not to give up on the country,” he said

“Abubakar is a son of nobody, who by dint of hardwork and resilience, has become somebody not only in Nigeria but globally.

“The Abubakar story of an erstwhile shepherd boy turned a national head boy is significant for all those struggling compatriots to emulate.”
