He said at a world press conference held in Abuja on Thursday that the battle against the qualifications of Tinubu for the presidency was specifically aimed at installing good governance, accountability and probity in public service.
Atiku, who was accompanied at the briefing by some former state governors and PDP chieftains, vowed to fight the battle to a logical conclusion.
The PDP presidential candidate admitted that he was undertaking the battle at a great cost but said that there would be no going back until justice is manifestly done in the struggle.
Atiku thanked his local and international lawyers for their good battle in court and enjoined Nigerians who desire good governance, justice, accountability and probity to join them.
He appealed to the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi and that of the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP, Rabiu Musa Kwankasso to join him in the struggle to enthrone legitimate and lawful government for the country.
Atiku insisted that the nation needs a legitimate government at the moment in the interest of future generations, adding that Nigeria is bigger than any individual.
The former Vice President called on well meaning Nigerians to join the struggle, noting that it was the duty of leaders to advance the well-being of the people during this type of trying period.
