ATIKU ABUBAKAR, HAS SAID HE WOULD NOT HESITATE TO WITHDRAW FROM THE 2027 PRESIDENTIAL RACE IF A YOUNGER, MORE VIBRANT AND ACCEPTABLE CANDIDATE EMERGES AS CANDIDATE OF THE ADC. (PHOTO).


 Former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, has said he would not hesitate to withdraw from the 2027 presidential race if a younger, more vibrant and acceptable candidate emerges as candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC). 

 


He disclosed this in an interview with BBC Hausa service on Wednesday,  October 1. 


The presidential aspirant noted that his interest in the 2027 race is not about personal ambition, but about providing a credible alternative to rescue Nigerians. 

 


The former VP charged younger Nigerians to actively participate in politics, stressing that he would fully back them if picked to contest for the presidency. 

 


Atiku denied claims that he was desperate for the seat of the president, declaring that he was only interested in “rescuing Nigeria from the people that have held it hostage.”


He said: “Besides, that is one of the reasons we set up ADC, which I am a member of. We couldn’t achieve that with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) because the APC government in power has decided to use some leaders of the party to frustrate efforts of having a strong opposition that could challenge the government. 


“As the day went by, the crises in PDP were growing, and the hope of resolving it was speedily vanishing because some senior members of the party were allegedly being used by the government to further destabilise the party, and we could see that in their actions and utterances. 


“I could have taken some firm decisions to fix the party if I was the chairman or secretary of the party or someone that listens to me was the chairman or secretary. Sadly, the people occupying those positions have different interests that are mostly personal to them.
