Atiku's Camp Denies Secret Political Negotiations Ahead of 2027 Elections

Atiku's camp has responded to former Ekiti State Governor Fayose's claims of secret political negotiations with Oyo State Governor Makinde ahead of the 2027 elections. Phrank Shaibu, Atiku's Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, labeled Fayose's allegations as reckless and malicious fabrications.

The statement emphasized Atiku's commitment to a broad-based political engagement with a national scope, dismissing Fayose's claims as misleading and provocative. The former Vice President, Atiku, and Governor Makinde have been engaging in political activities, with Makinde reportedly consulting with Ibrahim Bagbamosi and planning a potential alliance with the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

Atiku's recent travels to Saudi Arabia for a personal pilgrimage were also highlighted, refuting claims of a private meeting with APC's Abdulaziz Yari at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. The source, Legit NG, reported on these developments.
