Speaking at the sensitisation and mobilisation of his members for Atiku’s victory, the Director in charge of the People With Special Needs at the PDP Presidential Campaign Council, Senator Bello Hayatudeen Gwarzo said of all the presidential candidates, it is only Atiku that cared for, and held meeting with the people of that category.
The Former lawmaker, who is also the Zonal Vice Chairman, PDP, North West said the people have no excuse to abandon Atiku since he recognised them long before now.
“We, the People With Special Needs are for Atiku Abubakar because he recognised and cared for us. None of the presidential candidates recognised us except Atiku. We are going to vote him to ensure that he wins the February 25 election.
“We are for Atiku because he recognised and cared for us, and it is the person that cares for you that you too will care for.
“I want to remind us that Atiku held a meeting with us in Ladi Kwali hall, Abuja and appealed to us to vote for him during the presidential election.
“He promised to engage our members in his government if he wins the election and formed his cabinet. So it is our belief that if Atiku wins, we win too. And again we should avoid whoever does not recognise us as People With Special Needs.
