According to him, it is either Obi or Atiku depending also on who they surround themselves with to form a government.
Nigerians have been told that they should not waste their votes by voting for the All Progressives Congress in the 2023 presidential election.
A former governorship aspirant in Rivers State, Prince Tonye Princewill said this while urging Nigerians to choose between the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar and Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari next year.
Princewill disclosed that his decision to vote for either of the two candidates is dependent on what they have to offer the country if elected president in 2023.
According to him, it is either Obi or Atiku depending also on who they surround themselves with to form a government.
Princewill, who made this disclosure to Daily Post, however, said considering the crisis rocking the PDP at the moment, the party would have to intensify its work to win in the state.
He also described a vote for the All Progressives Congress (APC) as waste, adding that the Rivers APC have to put themselves together because time is running out.
He said, “When I appeared on television to explain my resignation from APC, I did it a month after I actually resigned because I wanted the dust to settle.
“For me, it should be either Atiku or Obi and my decision on any of them will be the product of thought. Let’s hear what they have to offer firsthand, who is serious about growing a winning coalition and then let’s see who they surround themselves with as leaders.
“That will go a long way to determining which of them will get my vote. I don’t want to waste it.
“If APC in Rivers does not put their act together, PDP might win. It’s not yet late, but there’s a lot to do and they are running out of time. PDP is not more popular, they are just a lot more liquid.
“Therefore they can buy judges, security men, INEC and voters. They can even buy APC members. Money is important. But hard work has no substitute. You need both to win.”
