2023: Atiku Wants Women to Do more on Election Day
POLITICS DIGEST- Ahead of the 2023 general elections, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar has charged women to deliver votes for the party and take leadership positions.

“Women are less corrupt. So, I am challenging you to provide that leadership by giving your 100 per cent at the general election next year. I charge you to display the unique attribute that God has endowed in you so we can succeed. If you want to be relevant, deliver your unit and I believe you can,” Atiku said.
