The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Mega Party, Prof. Pat Utomi, on Wednesday withdrew from the race over the inability of position parties to adopt a single contestant.
Utomi, who confirmed his decision to THE PUNCH on the telephone, said, “Yes, I’ve withdrawn. I withdrew today.” His decision came as a shock to Nigerians, especially as he had on Tuesday participated in the debate organised by the Nigeria Election Debate Group in Abuja alongside three other candidates.
The most academically intelligent politician amongst the contestants, but not the right man for the job at this juncture in our history, has quit the race, and rightfully so. If I were in his shoes, my next move would be to endorse the most capable man for the job... BUHARI.
