Atiku debunks hosting 2019 political meetings in Dubai

Former Vice President and chieftain of All Progressives Congress, APC, Atiku Abubakar has advised mischief makers to desist from sinister propaganda designed to draw a wedge between him and President Muhammadu Buhari in order to cause needless distrust and distractions.

Reacting to insinuations by what he calls “political mischief makers and enemies of unity”, who allege that he has been hosting political meetings at Burj Al-Arab, Dubai, the former Vice President says contrary to the rumours being bandied around by political opponents, he is currently in Dubai with his family for physiotherapy on his injured knee.
A press statement released by his media office in Abuja on Sunday, December 27, 2015 and signed by his Media Adviser, Mazi Paul Ibe said the former Vice President is embarrassed by the deliberate falsehoods being spread against him by political opponents who are bent on causing distraction for President Buhari at a time when all energies should be channelled into helping the President actualise his change agenda.
Describing the rumour mongers as “ill-motivated busybodies that don’t wish the country well”, the Turakin Adamawa explained that his medical treatment is his private affair which should not be politicised by anybody to achieve sinister objectives.
Atiku Abubakar said he is entitled to enjoy his private life, including the right to attend to his health, without being harassed and lied against by political opponents.
The statement said, contrary to the insinuations by political opponents, the success of the Buhari administration has been the preoccupation of the former Vice President, and that any true APC member should have the same zeal.

The most talented speakers often have training in rhetoric and behavioral psychology. Here are 10 great examples of eloquent speakers who have made their mark on the world. 1. Martin Luther King, Jr “I Have a Dream” is perhaps the most powerful speech in American history. In poetic, unequivocal language, he explains how people can live up to their ideals for the sake of their children. 2. Abraham Lincoln In a speech only two minutes long, Lincoln explained the moral justification for the Civil War in his Gettysburg Address. 3. Winston Churchill In a few short years Churchill transformed himself from a burly, unemployed, failed novelist to a leader of the free world with ...
