2027: I’ll implement Oronsaye Committee Report – Atiku

African Democratic Congress presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar has pledged to implement the Oronsaye Committee Report if elected president in the 2027 general elections. In a statement released by his spokesman, Mr. Kenneth Okonkwo, Atiku emphasized that the report provides Nigeria with a clear roadmap to reduce wasteful government practices.

Despite Democratic president Bola Tinubu's promise to enact the report, Atiku accused him of multiplying agencies, including fake ones. He assured Nigerians that the Oronsaye Report would not remain idle but would be fully and transparently implemented. Atiku plans to conduct a transparent audit of the agencies' number and purpose, eliminate unnecessary institutions, merge overlapping agencies, and cut governance costs.

He vowed to redirect the saved funds towards healthcare, education, infrastructure, jobs, and social protection. Atiku criticized the government for asking Nigerians to make sacrifices while wasting money, asserting that Nigeria needs action, not empty promises. He added that he would lead by example, making the government smarter, more efficient, and accountable.
