Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has sent a strong message to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, declaring that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) remains determined and unstoppable ahead of the 2027 general elections. Atiku made the remarks while addressing party supporters during a gathering aimed at strengthening the ADC’s political structures across the country.
Speaking with confidence about the party’s future, Atiku stated that the ADC has built enough momentum, grassroots engagement, and internal unity to compete strongly in the next election cycle. He emphasized that the political climate in Nigeria is shifting, with voters becoming more issue-focused and eager for parties that can deliver practical solutions.
Atiku declared that no obstacle—political, institutional, or economic—would derail the ADC’s forward march. He insisted that his message was not confrontational but intended to signal that the party is positioning itself as a major contender capable of challenging the ruling establishment.
He highlighted what he described as growing dissatisfaction among citizens over economic hardship, insecurity, and governance gaps, noting that such conditions provide an opportunity for the ADC to present itself as a credible alternative. According to him, Nigerians are increasingly searching for leadership that prioritizes transparency, economic recovery, and national unity.
Atiku also praised party members for their dedication in building the ADC’s presence in states where it previously lacked strong representation. He urged them to intensify grassroots mobilization, build alliances, and remain focused on policy-based campaigns rather than personality-driven politics.
In response, supporters affirmed their commitment to ensuring that the ADC emerges as a strong force in 2027. Many expressed optimism that the party’s rising popularity—especially among young voters—would help reshape Nigeria’s political landscape.
Political observers view Atiku’s statement as a bold signal of the ADC’s determination to insert itself into mainstream contestation ahead of 2027. As preparations intensify across various political parties, the coming months are expected to usher in heightened political activities and strategic realignments nationwide.
Atiku concluded by reiterating that the ADC’s mission is to give Nigerians a genuine and credible option—one he believes cannot be stopped by any political force.
