Onuesoke pointed out that one thing that made the ‘Turaki of Adamawa’ stand out
among other leaders is his ability to identify and recognize talent, competence
and consistency on key national issues, adding that Atiku Abubakar seems to
understand Nigeria but somehow, Nigeria has not been able to understand him.
Onuesoke who said he is a ‘an unapologetic Atikuist’ recalled that as Vice President, Atiku Abubakar advocated the creation of the Ministry of Niger Delta to fast-track development in the troubled Niger Delta region in which late President Yar’Adua adopted as a key content of his seven-point agenda in creating the Ministry of Niger Delta after he was sworn in as President in May 2007.
“ Furthermore, as Vice President and head of the Obasanjo Economic Team, Atiku Abubakar almost single-handedly headhunted the members of what eventually became an efficient economic team that designed and deployed mission-sensitive economic management policies and processes that enlivened the Obasanjo presidency and pushed Nigeria into the frontiers of continental and global leadership,” Onuesoke recalled.
He maintained that as we stand today, no other politician looks as prepared for the presidency as Atiku Abubakar is, adding that he has been consistent in proffering solutions to the many challenges that confront Nigeria and Nigerians by continuing to air his views and make propositions on the various areas of contentions even with respect to all the geopolitical zones within the Nigerian state.
