2027: Replace Atiku as your presidential candidate – Babachir Lawal tells ADC

Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, has urged the African Democratic Congress, ADC, to replace Atiku Abubakar as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections.

Lawal gave this advice in a statement posted on his Facebook page, maintaining that the ADC primary election was massively rigged in favour of Atiku.

According to him, Atiku does not have what it takes to defeat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general election.

He decried that most of his critics had focused on attacking him rather than addressing the issues he raised.

“Indeed I would urge the ADC to replace this man with a more qualified candidate if they want to have any hope of winning the presidential election before INEC timetable runs out on them.

“Since my Kachalla 1 post, almost the whole of Nigeria’s Fulani race has descended on me with all manner of insults and threats,” he said.
