2027: Security will be restored across Nigeria if I'm elected president – Atiku

Atiku Abubakar, the candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has pledged to restore security across Nigeria if he is elected as president in 2027. This commitment was made during the flag-off of Atiku's presidential campaign in Sokoto State on Wednesday. The ADC leader urged Nigerians to back his party in the upcoming election, emphasizing that restoring security is one of his key campaign promises.

The campaign kickoff occurred a day after Atiku accused the Sokoto State Government and security operatives of trying to disrupt his rally. He claimed that the Department of State Services (DSS) was allegedly recruiting protesters to create disturbances and potentially lead to a curfew. In response, the DSS launched an investigation into Atiku's allegations, though they labeled the claims as inconsistent with their operations.

Despite the controversy, Atiku proceeded with the campaign flag-off in Sokoto State, calling on Nigerians to vote for the ADC in the 2027 general election.
