Atiku Abubakar Advocated as Pan-Nigerian Leader for 2027 Election

The African Democratic Congress Presidential Campaign Council has characterized its candidate, Atiku Abubakar, as a true pan-Nigerian leader and a detribalised statesman, deserving victory in the January 16, 2027 presidential election. Kola Ologbondiyan, the Director of Media and Publicity for the council, made these remarks during a visit from the Grassroots Mobilisation Network, led by Sadiq Lwafu.

Ologbondiyan emphasized Atiku's ability to transcend ethnic, religious, and regional boundaries, highlighting his diverse family, business, and political relationships. He contrasted Atiku with President Bola Tinubu, accusing him of sectionalism and alleging that the All Progressives Congress exploits Nigeria's ethnic and religious differences for political gain.

Ologbondiyan stated that Tinubu's governance has not improved living conditions for Nigerians and that Atiku's track record and policy proposals make him the best candidate for addressing the country's challenges. He mentioned that an Atiku administration would restore the fuel subsidy in a transparent manner to benefit vulnerable Nigerians.
