Im not messiah dont promise el dorado atiku replies igodye

A quote from the 2019 Nigerian presidential election!

Atiku Abubakar, the then-opponent of President Muhammadu Buhari, was responding to a tweet by Igodye, a popular Nigerian blogger and satirist. Igodye had tweeted: "Atiku, you're not a messiah, don't promise El Dorado."

In his response, Atiku was essentially saying that he was not a savior or a messiah, and therefore, he would not make unrealistic promises to Nigerians. "El Dorado" is a reference to a mythical place of great wealth and prosperity, implying that Atiku was not promising a utopian society.

Atiku's response was seen as a way to temper expectations and to emphasize his commitment to working hard to address the country's challenges, rather than making grandiose promises.
