Former vice president of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has launched a new television channel, Atiku TV, in a bid to further develop and encourage his social and political activities.
The launch of the digital platform for the campaign of the former vice president was held in Kano state on Wednesday, August 12, reports The Country.
Speaking on Atiku 's behalf during the grand event, Hajiya Baraka Sani, a former state commissioner for agriculture, said the station is a modern strategy that
"will change Atiku’s mode of reaching out to people from analogue to digital, henceforth."
Hajiya clarified that the Atiku TV content would be turned into YouTube videos and shared through WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other online media.
She said:
“In developed countries, people sit in their homes and watch campaign plans of candidates on the television; you must not carry hundreds of vehicles and begin to move from one village to another, and from house to house.
“The digital campaign sets the records of your campaign promises straight, so that people can hold you responsible when you fail to deliver on your promises." She added
