Oshiomhole Rejects Atiku's Alliance Plans for 2027 Election

Adams Oshiomhole, the Senator representing Edo North, stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is unconcerned about Atiku Abubakar's potential move to the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) or any alliance with former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi for the 2027 elections. In an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Oshiomhole emphasized that both Atiku and Obi lost to President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 elections, suggesting that any collaboration would not alter future outcomes.

He referenced a recent court ruling that nullified the leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) led by David Mark, which he argued undermines Atiku's presidential ambitions. Oshiomhole labeled Atiku a "serial loser," pointing out his repeated failures in presidential elections in 2007, 2011, 2019, and 2023.

He expressed no fear of Atiku's candidacy and criticized Atiku's promise to restore fuel subsidy as mere political posturing.
