2027: Why I will rather back Tinubu than Atiku – Babachir Lawal

Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal, has expressed his preference for supporting President Bola Tinubu over Atiku Abubakar, the candidate of the African Democratic Congress in the 2027 presidential election. In an interview on the Naija Unfiltered Podcast, Lawal stated that Nigeria could experience a chaotic collapse if Atiku were to assume the presidency.

Recently, Lawal joined the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, after leaving the ADC due to Atiku's nomination as their presidential candidate. "I'd rather go with Bola than Atiku because when Nigeria crashes with Bola, it might be an orderly crash, but with Atiku, it would be a chaotic one," Lawal declared. Lawal, who previously worked with Atiku, attributed his current stance to his past experience.

He claimed that Atiku is not a good man, as he often provides instructions and then alters them after consulting with others.
