PRESS RELEASE

Delusion As Distraction

In response to recent inquiries from journalists and concerned Nigerians regarding a phantom meeting where His Excellency, Atiku Abubakar, was said to have "rejected calls to step down for a southern candidate," we are compelled to set the record straight in the strongest possible terms:

There was no such meeting. Atiku Abubakar was never in attendance. The entire story is a malicious fabrication — pure fiction cooked up in the propaganda kitchens of the Tinubu-led APC regime.

It is not only false; it is laughably desperate.

This is nothing but a diversionary tactic — an attempt by a faltering administration to sow discord within the opposition ranks and derail the momentum gained by the successful unveiling of the ADC as the coalition’s political vehicle.

Let it be known:
No amount of propaganda, planted stories, or faceless briefings will fracture the resolve of the opposition coalition. We are united, focused, and determined to rescue Nigeria from the clutches of this rudderless government.

We want to remind the ruling party that Nigerians have already embraced the ADC as the most credible and viable opposition platform ahead of 2027. The massive and growing support that the ADC continues to enjoy across the country is not just encouraging - it is a clear signal that the Tinubu administration is living on borrowed time.

We call on Nigerians and the media to treat the so-called “statement” with the contempt it deserves. It bears no attribution, no credibility, and no truth.

Signed:
Atiku Media Office

Tinubu wouldn't be sitting inside Aso Rock right now, drooling on himself and getting high if Obi had stayed off the 2023 ballot

You are united but Atiku banners everywhere and his foot soldiers including Paul Ibe has said that Atiku is the candidate

SlavaUkraini:
Why are some Coalition members afraid of contesting a free and fair open primaries with Atiku Abubakar ?

It isn't just about the Dollars he has because they also have dollars to splash out if they decide to...

Their fear is the popularity of the man amongst Northern delegates especially...

And any candidate that can attract a substantial portion of the Northern delegates will eventually win the primaries...

Peter Obi should be careful and wise

He should reject calls from his Obidients camp not to run as VP to Atiku Abubakar...

Without the so called Obidient movement they both secured 12 million+ votes in 2019

If they decide to withdraw their "support" because he is a running mate to Atiku Abubakar this time around, no problem

Both of them will still defeat Jagaban

Atiku Abubakar is a sure path for Peter Obi or any South Easterner to enter Aso Rock.....

They both need each other and should be encouraged to work together.
