In a significant twist of events, former vice-president Atiku Abubakar has boasted that the African Democratic Congress (ADC), the opposition coalition party, will take over power from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2027.
Atiku, who decried the lack of ideology by political parties in the country, maintained that the ADC is coming with a clear ideology to tackle the nation’s economic and other problems.
The former VP remarked in Ado Ekiti, the capital of Ekiti state, during the unveiling and inauguration of the state ADC executive council over the weekend.
Leadership reported. Atiku, represented by Prof Bayode Fakunle, said Nigeria has changed politically and there are several political parties without ideology.
According to him: “ADC was launched just about three weeks ago and within two weeks, it has become the most dominant party in the country and all other parties are already jittery. It is a party with ideology, peopled by those that are ready to save Nigeria, because Nigeria should not and can never be a one party state.
“ADC is for all Nigerians, it is a party that will change the political landscape of this country and everyone is welcomed with open hands and by the grace of God, this party will take over the leadership of this country come 2027.”
