Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has confirmed he will contest the 2027 presidential election.
Speaking through his spokesperson, Tunde Olusunle, Atiku clarified from his UAE holiday home that contrary to reports, he is not stepping back, stressing that Nigeria “needs to be saved from the ICU under Tinubu’s administration.”
Olusunle added that Atiku disowned claims made by Ola Olateju, who had earlier said the ex-VP was not desperate for power.
“I did not issue that statement. When people stand in for me at events, we preview my thoughts on the instant subject and what my contribution or intervention will be, so we are on the same page.
“In this particular instance, there was no engagement with me to distill my thoughts. Prof. Olateju was not speaking for me.
“I will run in 2027. Nigeria needs to be decisively rescued from the intensive care unit it has been consigned. The degeneration in our country, the level of poverty and pain, the anguish, is unacceptable,” he said.
