2027: Moghalu rejects Atiku campaign appointment

Former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Kingsley Moghalu, has rejected his inclusion in the policy team of the African Democratic Congress presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, for the 2027 election. Moghalu stated that he was neither consulted nor asked for his consent before his name was published as a member of Atiku’s campaign policy team.

He further clarified that he had quit partisan politics in Nigeria in 2022 and remains committed to his non-partisan stance, serving as president of the Institute for Governance and Economic Transformation, IGET Africa, and CEO of Sogato Strategies. Atiku’s campaign unveiled its Presidential Campaign Council, naming Moghalu among members of its Policy Team, chaired by economist and banker Mohammed Hayatudeen.
