Timi Frank Raises Alarm Over Alleged Plot to Assassinate Atiku Ahead of 2027 Elections

Timi Frank, a former deputy national publicity secretary of the APC, has raised alarm over an alleged plot to assassinate former Vice President Atiku ahead of the 2027 general elections. Frank claims that security personnel have been withdrawn from Atiku, leaving him vulnerable.

He warns that the move mirrors a dangerous political trend in Africa where incumbent leaders intimidate, arrest, detain, prosecute, or even eliminate opposition leaders to retain power unchallenged. The sudden withdrawal of security personnel from Atiku's team has raised concerns about his safety and the state of democracy in Nigeria.
