Before meeting Hayatu-Deen, the former vice president had held talks with Amaechi. Following that meeting, Atiku said their discussions focused on the country’s challenges, including economic hardship and insecurity.
According to him, the meeting centred on deep and honest conversations about “the troubling state of the nation, the growing economic pain, insecurity, and the urgent responsibility on patriotic Nigerians to continue engaging in the search for solutions that can rescue our country from drift and despair.”
Responding to complaints about the primary, ADC National Chairman, Senator David Mark, maintained that the exercise was free and fair, although he acknowledged that it was not without shortcomings.
He said all the aspirants were qualified to lead the party but noted that only one candidate could emerge as its presidential flag bearer.
Atiku and Amaechi joined the ADC in July 2025 alongside other opposition figures as part of a broader political realignment aimed at challenging President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general election.
