Atiku Abubakar Ready to Campaign Nationwide for 2027

The African Democratic Congress Presidential Campaign Council (ADC-PCC) declared that its presidential candidate, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, is fit and ready to campaign across Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory in preparation for the 2027 general election. The ADC-PCC criticized President Bola Tinubu for his decision not to campaign in all states, labeling it as arrogant and disrespectful to Nigerians.

Kola Ologbondiyan, the Director of Media and Publicity of the ADC-PCC, made these statements while addressing a group of youths from Young Voters for Atiku and responding to Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso's interview. Ologbondiyan argued that a president seeking re-election should engage directly with voters and account for his performance.

He claimed that Tinubu's reluctance to campaign was due to public dissatisfaction with his administration. The ADC-PCC also condemned Kwankwaso's suggestion for Atiku to step down for Peter Obi, calling it reckless and self-serving.
