Atiku Unsure of 2027 Presidential ambition

By Charles Maduka

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has said he is not certain about running for president in 2027. He explained that a strong political platform is necessary before making such a decision.  

Atiku shared his thoughts during an interview for the upcoming TV show *Untold Stories with Adesuwa Giwa-Osagie*.  

His comments came shortly after he announced a coalition of opposition leaders working to challenge President Bola Tinubu and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the next election.  

When asked if he would contest in 2027, he said: “I don’t know because there has to be, first of all, a viable platform, more than any other time in the political history of this country, particularly since the return of democracy.”

Although uncertain, Atiku did not rule out the possibility, stressing that Nigeria urgently needs competent leadership.  

“I have not seen Nigeria in dire need of, you know, an experienced and credible leadership than this time. We had a similar, you know, what would I say, merger in 2014. About four of us or is it three? We all ran for president and one of us emerged, and we all supported the one who emerged, and he won,” he said.  

Atiku’s remarks highlight the ongoing political discussions about Nigeria’s future leadership as the 2027 elections approach.
