Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is expected to travel to Europe on Friday (today).

“He will be travelling immediately after his meeting on Friday in Lagos, with the leadership of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) alongside the PDP vice presidential candidate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta,” Paul Ibe, his media adviser said in a statement.

Recall that Ayorchia Ayu, the embattled PDP chairman had also left for Europe last week. Analysts are already alluding that the trips may be  pre-planned.

The PDP is locked in an internal crisis since after the May Presidential primaries.
