The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has stated that presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar did not attend the G100 opposition summit in Abuja on Monday. The ADC's National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, clarified that the summit was primarily focused on discussions between political parties, not among candidates. Abdullahi emphasized that the ADC was well-represented at the summit, with four vice chairmen in attendance.
The summit brought together representatives from six opposition parties to explore cooperation opportunities ahead of the 2027 elections. Notable absentees included Atiku, Peter Obi, and Seyi Makinde. Abdullahi stressed that the ADC's participation in the talks was not contingent on forming a single presidential candidate with other opposition parties.
The ADC remains committed to its stance on fuel subsidy, viewing it as a crucial factor in reducing the cost of living.
