Atiku Abubakar, the former vice president of Nigeria, has been told to drop his presidential ambition ahead of the 2027 election
PDP deputy national publicity secretary Ibrahim Abdullahi said Atiku cannot dictate the direction of the party while endorsing the call for ex-President Goodluck Jonathan to join the 2027 race
According to Abdullahi, the PDP is a national party and Atiku cannot tell the party who to field in the 2027 presidential election
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that former vice president Atiku Abubakar has contested for the president several times. It was time for him to drop his ambition and allow the party to decide its direction.
Ibrahim Abdullahi, the deputy national publicity secretary of the party, made the comment while supporting the call for former President Goodluck Jonathan to run against President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
