Atiku Abubakar, a former vice-president, says the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition will be unrelenting in defending the rights of Nigerians.
Abubakar spoke during meetings with Aminu Tambuwal, senator
representing Sokoto south; and Abubakar Malami, former attorney-general of the
federation, on Monday.
In an X post, he noted that opposition leaders are working
to rescue democracy in Nigeria.
“We will be unrelenting in defending the rights of every
Nigerian being harassed by anti-democratic forces of the Tinubu-led APC administration,”
Abubakar said.
“The coalition that we are pushing is aimed at rescuing our
democracy from the stranglehold of this emerging dictatorship. We shall be
deliberate in joining hands in saving our democracy.”
On September 5, Abubakar said recent events in Kaduna,
Katsina, and other states point to a troubling drift towards authoritarianism
under President Bola Tinubu.
He alleged that the invitations extended to Nasir el-Rufai,
former governor of Kaduna and leaders of the ADC in the state by the police;
the attack on the convoy of Malami, and the disruption of a Katsina Elders
Forum meeting on security reforms; were not isolated events.
