2019 election: Ben Bruce reveals his presidential candidate

The Senator representing Bayelsa East district in the National Assembly, Ben Murray-Bruce, has announced that he is rooting for the Presidential aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar ahead of the 2019 Presidential election.

In a tweet on Tuesday, the lawmaker expressed confidence that Atiku would get Nigeria working again.
Ben Bruce, alongside a picture with Atiku wrote, ”With Waziri @atiku, my choice as the next @NGRPresident and the man who will #GetNigeriaWorkingAgain.”

This is coming at a time when Atiku who feels he is the most qualified Presidential candidate had asked former Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido to step down for him.
However, Lamido refused, saying he is older than Atiku and cannot step down.
