Atiku Abubakar, the 2027 African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate, has declared that his party is pitted against "thieves" in the upcoming election. In a recent video shared on his X account, Atiku accused the incumbent government of stealing both the election and Nigeria's economy, stating, "We are competing with thieves. They stole the election. Now they have stolen the economy. They have stolen everything."
The former Vice President reiterated his commitment to reinstating the fuel subsidy if elected, arguing that the removal of the subsidy had exacerbated poverty among Nigerians. Atiku emphasized that the government's responsibility is to safeguard the welfare of its citizens, particularly during times of economic hardship.
He also highlighted the detrimental impact of rising fuel prices on transport and food costs, which have placed a heavier burden on households. To address these issues, Atiku pledged to support local production, foster business growth, and make wages more valuable for Nigerians.
In his bid for the presidency, Atiku reiterated his commitment to improving both economic and physical security for the nation.
