Atiku Shades More Light On Buhari's Attire In Calabar

As the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, continues his presidential campaign across Nigeria, former Vice President, Atiku Abubbakar has commented on the attire the former Head of State wore in Calabar on Wednesday.

The APC presidential candidate was in Calabar yesterday for a rally. Only for gist to go viral that he collapsed at the venue. Confirmed reports however said he tripped and almost fell.

While commenting on his official Twitter handle, @atiku, moments ago, Atiku described the Efik/Ibibio attire Buhari was wearing at the rally as “truly beautiful”.

The former Adamawa State governor added that “Nigeria is blessed indeed”.

The Efik/Ibibio culture and dressing is truly beautiful. Nigeria is blessed indeed.
