Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has vowed that the 2027 election will be tough, stating that the coalition being formed to sack the All Progressives Congress, APC, from power, “is not a joke”.
According to a statement he posted on social media on
Tuesday, Atiku spoke while addressing the delegation of Kannywood and key North
West opinion leaders, who paid him a courtesy visit.
The former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic
Party PDP said he told the delegation that “the opposition coalition being put
together is not a joke, and it will soon be unveiled.
“I told the visiting forum that the envisaged coalition is a
deliberate effort to recover and rebuild Nigeria in line with the yearnings and
aspirations of the people”.
Atiku said the North West stakeholders in the new media
industry informed him that they are building a coalition ahead of 2027 to back
the Coalition of opposition political leaders.
“Dr Aslam Aliyu, a top Zamfara politician who leads the PAA
2027, NEW MEDIA & DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS FORUM, a coalition of digital
media stakeholders, led the delegation.
“The forum is comprised of members of Kannywood, Zamfara TOP
10, and other groups.
“The forum informed me that their commitment is predicated
on a review of the outcome of the 2023 polls and the voter awareness and
information gaps identified.
“Some members of the forum, who played roles in the election
of the President Tinubu-led APC government, expressed deep regrets about
foisting an incompetent and clueless leadership on Nigeria and expressed a
commitment to back the ongoing coalition efforts of opposition leaders.
“I assured the forum that 2027 will not be business as
usual”, the statement added.
