The party made the call in a new year message issued by the director, media and publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Monday, December 31, in Abuja.

Ologbondiyan, who congratulated Nigerians for seeing 2019, urged them to use the New Year to pray against all negative projections and more hardship and to vote PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on Febuary 16, to bring in new hope.

He said that Abubakar already articulated a practical blueprint to ease their burden by engendering rapid economic recovery, national cohesion and realistic solutions to the country’s myriad of challenges.

According to him, 2019, as an election year, offers citizens their much-desired opportunity to end the trajectory of economic hardship, hunger and starvation, high unemployment figures and killings.

Read the statement below:

"The PPCO congratulates Nigerians for their resilience in surviving the almost four years of President Muhammadu Buhari’s incompetent, anti-people and harsh administration and urges them to use the New Year to pray against all negative projections by President Muhammadu Buhari, who had declared more hardship for Nigerians in the coming year.

Nigerians must therefore avert such negative projections by voting out President Buhari and replacing him with their choice leader, the PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku, who has already articulated a practical blueprint to ease their burden and pain by engendering rapid economic recovery, national cohesion and realistic solutions to our myriad of challenges.

2019, as an election year, offers our citizens their much-desired opportunity to end the trajectory of economic hardship, hunger and starvation, strange diseases, untimely deaths, collapsed infrastructure, humongous unemployment figures, wanton killings and all the evils that have bedeviled our nation in almost four years of the President Buhari’s corrupt and incompetent administration.

Our citizens have made immensurable sacrifices to keep the nation going in the face of very harsh policies, lies and fake promises of the Buhari administration. They now eagerly long for a breathe of fresh air under Atiku as their next President.

Nigerians should therefore be optimistic as their incoming President will usher in a new era of a transparent and responsive government with the template for wealth creation, job opportunities and revitalization of our productive sector through tax cuts and direct empowerment of our hard working entrepreneurs in a manner that increases our national productivity, reduce costs of goods and services, increase exports and shore up the value of our naira.

Furthermore, Atiku Abubakar, as a new symbol of our national unity, has also perfected the outline for national reconciliation and healing and ending of all divisive tendencies with which the Buhari Presidency fouled our polity with violence, divided our people along primordial fault lines, with its attendant violence and bloodletting in various parts of our nation.

The PPCO therefore urges Nigerians to maintain their resolve to make our nation work again by continuing in rallying behind Atiku Abubakar to rescue our nation from the stranglehold of President Buhari and his vicious cabal."

In a previous report by Legit.ng, President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday, December 31, told Nigerians in a New Year message that the forthcoming elections in the country would be free, fair and credible adding that he was happy candidates had signed a peace accord.

In the message, Buhari noted that elections should not be seen as a do-or-die affair as he urged politicians not to make the 2019 exercise look like that.

The president also called on Nigerians to join him in a new journey and dream to make the country great again saying what could not be achieved in 2018 could be carried over.
