Nigerians of Yoruba descent have been urged to ensure that they throw their full support for Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party because of his wife.
Atiku Abubakar’s wife, Titi has called on the people of Yoruba descent to ensure they vote for her husband who is contesting for the seat of the president under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The Cable reports that Titi while speaking during an interview on Tuesday, January 24, said that Yoruba is yet to boast of a First Lady since the inception of democracy in 1999.
Appealing to the people from the southwest region to support her husband, Titi said she wants to become Nigeria’s first Yoruba First Lady.
During the interview which was conducted by BBC Yoruba, Titi assured the people that she will not relent in her humanitarian work which spans across issues of women including the fight against trafficking and child labour.
Her words: “Since the inception of the civilian government in 1999, no Yoruba person has become the first lady of the country.
I want to be the first Yoruba woman. “I want Yoruba people to support the candidacy of Atiku. Atiku’s victory will make me the first lady of the country.”
Also stating that her husband will unify the people of Nigeria if he is elected president, Titi said Atiku wants to give back to society.
