He said in the past seven years, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) had continued to mismanage the nation’s diversity, economy, education, and security architecture.
Aniagwu said Atiku would energise the country’s private sector to drive the nation’s economy to provide jobs for the people.
He said, “The APC has no single plan to develop this country, if they had any how have they executed those plans? If they had a plan, Nigeria would not be where we are today, because they would have known that it was important to manage our diversity, so that everybody is well taken care of.
“Nigerians helped them into power in 2015 and they left them behind after failing to fulfill all their campaign promises. Atiku’s plan for Nigeria is generic and it rests on the fact that our Presidential candidate and his running mate governor Ifeanyi Okowa understand what the issues are.
“Atiku didn’t just wake up to declare for President, he has been preparing for this over time and he is adequately apprised with what it takes to indeed rescue and rebuild Nigeria. Only Atiku is prepared to lead, other candidates aren’t ready with their plans. Each time you ask other presidential candidates they will tell you that they will soon come up with their manifesto and that tells you that they are not prepared for the task ahead.
“Nigeria is currently at an intensive care unit and does not require a leader who is not adequately prepared to lead her out of its present challenges. Because of the failure of the APC government to understand the diversity of Nigeria they have poorly mismanaged this diversity making Nigerians to be at war with each other.
“Atiku says he is coming to ensure that this war ceases by ensuring that all ethnic groups are on the table to discuss issues as they affect their people and this brings confidence. Atiku is prepared to unite Nigerians because most of the challenges in the economy, security and unemployment are symptomatic of the very poor management of our diversity.
“Beyond his clear understanding of the nation’s diversity, Atiku is a man with a CEO mentality, he has been a businessman and he understands what it takes to run a business and so he is coming to ensure that jobs return to our people.”
