Atiku Abubakar, a leading member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has pledged to back whichever candidate wins the party's presidential nomination. In an interview with DW Hausa, he emphasized unity within the party, stating that age would not influence his support for the eventual flagbearer. Atiku affirmed that all aspirants, regardless of their standing, would come together to support the chosen candidate. He described internal cohesion as critical ahead of the general elections. No timeline or specific process for the party's candidate selection was disclosed.
Atiku Abubakar saying he'll support any ADC candidate carries weight, given his history of shifting party allegiances. His current endorsement of party unity seems less about principle and more about positioning. For Nigerian voters, this signals continuity in political maneuvering rather than a break from convenience-driven politics. It remains unclear how much influence he truly holds within the ADC.
