Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has urged leaders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to intensify their efforts to “rescue Nigeria” from what he describes as the failings of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). He made the appeal during a meeting with ADC state chairmen in Abuja, emphasizing the need for swift action. The gathering, held on Monday, was attended by Kogi State Chairman Ogga Temitope Kingsley and other party officials.
In a statement released on Tuesday, Atiku expressed satisfaction with the enthusiasm of ADC leaders regarding his recent membership in the party. He encouraged other members and coalition leaders to formally register with the ADC, stressing the importance of active participation in the party’s activities. Atiku reiterated the coalition’s commitment to a secure, united, and prosperous Nigeria, accusing the APC of worsening the country’s crisis. He praised the state‑level leaders for prioritizing the nation’s future and affirmed his resolve to prevent the APC from further destabilizing the country.
Since joining the ADC, Atiku has been consulting with various political groups and party structures to strengthen the party’s base ahead of future elections. The ADC, as part of a broader coalition, aims to provide a viable alternative to the ruling APC. With Nigeria’s political landscape continuing to evolve, Atiku’s involvement is seen as a significant development. The party’s mission to “rescue Nigeria” focuses on addressing socio‑economic challenges that, according to the ADC, have been exacerbated by APC policies. As the country prepares for upcoming elections, the ADC and its allies are poised to play a crucial role in shaping Nigeria’s political trajectory, challenging APC dominance and offering a new vision for the nation’s future.
