The Organizing For Atiku Abubakar Development Agenda (OFAADA), in collaboration with Security, Health, Education (S.H.E) campaign, has launched an ‘Operation Call your Neighbour’ to canvass votes for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, in the 2023 general election, AMILOADED reports.
The launching of the campaign was done by the Deputy Director of OFAADA, Olubunmi Alarape, at the Atlantis Event Centre in Osogbo, the Osun State capital on Wednesday.
Alarape stated that the program was a people-to-people concept organised by the OFAADA 2023 Project in collaboration with the S.H.E Campaign of the wife of the PDP presidential candidate, Titi Abubakar.
She said, “We were motivated once more, to pick up the gauntlet in 2022 for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar because we believe in him, in the last 12 months, we traversed the nook and corners of several states in the country conducting voter registration education and awareness.
“During the combined exercises of voter registration and collection of PVC, we have primed 1.5million Nigerians across three geopolitical zones of Southwest, South-South, and North Central to vote on February 25th, 2023 for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
“At OFAADA 2023 Project/S.H.E. campaign, we believe that the only ticket, in this year’s election that has a plan for the common man in Nigeria is the Atiku/Okowa ticket. We must work hard to put Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in Aso Villa come May 29, 2023.
“Hence, we are here today to continue that onerous task to sensitize our citizens, and Mobilize our neighbors to vote for our principal, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, for President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria on February 25, 2023.
“Nigeria is at crossroads with insecurity, unemployment, education, and healthcare services. We have never seen our nation in the state of disunity the APC government has put her in the last 8 years. We need change and it begins with your vote on February 25, 2023.
“Join us in this novel Operation Call Your Neighbor’ to contact your neighbors with the good news Atiku is coming! We ask that you call at least 5 people daily between now and February 25, 2023. Let us work together to rescue Nigeria from APC’s rudderless leadership of the last 8 years,” Alarape stated.
Titi Abubakar, who was represented at the event by Modupeola Adeleke-Sanni, appreciated the women, who came from different local Governments to honour the event and the convener who came from the United States to sensitise the residents to vote for Atiku.
“Make sure to get your Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and come out on the election day which is February 25, 2023, to vote in PDP for a change of leadership and governance,” she added.
The PDP Chairman in Osun State, Dr. Adekunle Akindele, urged the people to vote for the man that can reform Nigeria for the better and implored them to get their PVCs, extend the sensitisation to their neighborhood to have a reformed Nigeria.
Also speaking, the Osun State Coordinator of the Atiku Support Group, Funmiso Babarinde, and Coordinator of SHE Campaign, Abdulsalami Olaitan, said, “The main purpose of gathering Women today is that women are very accessible, they can get into the minds of everybody around them through their evangelism, so we believe with this sensitization, they will propagate the news of Atiku-Okowa to everyone around them.”
Others at the event were the Secretary to the State Government, Teslim Igbalaye; the South West Matron for S.H.E Campaign, Modupeola Adeleke-Sanni, among others.
