Imansuagbon Urges South to Support Atiku for 2027

On September 13, 2026, Kenneth Imansuagbon, a stalwart of the African Democratic Congress and former Edo State governorship aspirant, called on Southern voters to support Atiku Abubakar's presidential bid for the 2027 election. He described Abubakar as the candidate best suited to unify Nigeria and rectify perceived governance imbalances.

Imansuagbon criticized the current administration under President Bola Tinubu, highlighting concerns over regional and ethnic considerations in governance. He emphasized the need for a leader who promotes fairness and inclusiveness in political power distribution.
