The presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress and former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has appointed two aides to drive community engagement as part of efforts to strengthen his grassroots outreach.
In a statement issued on Wednesday by his media office, Atiku named Alh. Aliyu Bello as Senior Special Assistant on Community Engagement and Dr. Victor Moses as Special Assistant on Community Engagement.
