“Atiku is my leader, my boss and a senior brother. If he invites me for anything I will attend.

“Aspiring (for the presidency), does not say I should not keep my relationships very cordial.

I’m aspiring. Remember, I always say it, Atiku is a unifier. He believes in Nigeria. He’s a good man. And anytime he invites me for anything, I will be there.”
