Atiku: Nothing Will Keep Me Off 2027 Ballot, ADC Heads to Appeal Court
*Former VP tells Tinubu: You can’t use courts to escape Nigerians’ verdict *ADC seeks stay of execution, warns INEC against pre-empting appeal*Go and sort out your internal problems, APC fires
Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has declared that nothing will prevent him from standing in the 2027 general election, despite a recent ruling by the Federal High Court in Abuja. The court nullified the African Democratic Congress (ADC) congresses and dismissed the party's National Executive Committee, led by Senator David Mark.
The ADC is appealing the decision and has requested a stay of execution from the Court of Appeal. Atiku warned against pre-emptive actions by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of attempting to destabilize his party. He emphasized that Nigerians must have the right to choose their future and that the opposition will continue its campaign despite the court's ruling.
