ADC Leaders Back Atiku Abubakar Amid Allegations

Leaders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in South-West Nigeria have publicly expressed their support for the party's presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar. This statement comes in response to earlier claims of dissatisfaction regarding the alleged marginalization of the party's structure in the region and failure to provide transportation allowances to state chairmen and officials.

Rasak Eyiowuawi, the immediate past South-West Zonal Chairman, labeled these reports as false, mischievous, and politically motivated attempts to create division within the party. He emphasized that the genuine ADC leadership remains firmly behind Atiku, recognizing his political experience and commitment to building a strong political movement.

Eyiowuawi criticized individuals attempting to portray personal grievances as collective dissatisfaction and urged that any genuine concerns should be addressed through established internal mechanisms rather than through anonymous media reports. He accused some individuals of trying to discredit the party's presidential project due to their own political failures.
