Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has stirred political conversations nationwide after declaring that only the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has the capacity to rescue Nigeria from its current challenges.
Atiku made the remark on Thursday while reacting to recent political realignments and the growing influence of the ADC ahead of the 2027 general elections. He argued that the party has shown “clarity, structure, and sincerity of purpose” needed to rebuild the country.
His statement has sparked widespread debate, especially following the recent defection of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, to the ADC, a move many analysts say could reshape the 2027 power structure.
Political observers note that Atiku’s endorsement of the ADC signals rising momentum within the party as it positions itself as a major contender in the coming elections.
