2027: APC fires back at Kwankwaso over promise to take care of Atiku

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has responded to Rabiu Kwankwaso's claim that he will ensure Atiku Abubakar is taken care of if the opposition candidate withdraws from the 2027 presidential race. APC's National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, criticized Kwankwaso's stance, accusing the opposition of hypocrisy and engaging in "horse trading" over a position they neither held nor were guaranteed.

Morka described the opposition as "whited sepulchres," filled with corruption and hypocrisy. The APC figure also highlighted that the opposition ticket has no rights to assume control of the presidency, given their lack of victory in previous elections. Earlier, Kwankwaso had reached out to Atiku, urging him to step down from the race and support the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket in the upcoming election, citing Atiku's age and potential health issues.
