Ugandan Vice President Endorses Atiku Abubakar For President, Says He Is The Best Candidate

The former vice President of Uganda, Dr Gilbert Bikenya has endorsed Atiku Abubakar as the Nigeria’s President of Nigeria.

Here is how the former Dean of Medicine Faculty at Makerere University endorsed Atiku:

“I have rubbed shoulders with several African Presidents and Vice-Presidents. I have participated in many conversations with these men – both formally and informally. Some of these conversations have attracted attention and many have been amusing – but very few have included intellectual and analytical discussions of substantive issues. Seldom in these conversations does one hear about the conditions and needs of the country’s poor.

In 2005, I met a man at his residence in Abuja, Nigeria, who surprised me. He welcomed me with a guarded smile and went straight to business. He was smart, eloquent and very knowledgeable. I was struck by his consistent reference to “my people.” He was so concerned about the poor. He discussed impacts of educational injustices and weakened agricultural practices in Nigeria. Our conversation ended and we parted.

While I left him with some traditional Ugandan gifts, he left me with much to contemplate. This Nigerian “big man” had sounded so earnest and completely devoted to “his people”. Surely, I was surprised and he has left a lasting impression. We have remained friends over the years and I have observed his business and political dealings over time. I have noted the tremendous value that this man, Atiku Abubakar, has contributed to Nigeria’s development.

He has been a philanthropic leader and a determined and passionate advocate for improving the national educational system. I heard recently with great pleasure that he is running for the Presidency in the upcoming Presidential elections. I immediately thought, “what an extraordinary opportunity Nigerians have to elect Atiku as president of Nigeria.” If I were Nigerian, I would vote for Atiku Abubakar without hesitation or reservation. On an individual basis, he is unequivocally the best candidate.”

    Atiku, you have really done well. An Ugandan has endorsed you, do you know what that means? it connotes that your campaign is going no where. Imagine if Macroon, Merkel or any other western leader had endorses you, that would have boosted your campaign and implies you have proven yourself to the world but lobbying through African Country like Uganda makes your campaign worst. Don’t worry, other African Countries like Guinea, Central Africa Republic, Burundi, Madagascar Island of Comoros will soon endorse you.
