  "summary": "Atiku Abubakar, the 2027 presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, has reacted to the police inviting two politicians over their alleged involvement in weapon-related threats. The Kano State Police Command invited a chieftain of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) for displaying a firearm at a political gathering, while the Edo State Police Command invited the chairman of the state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for his \"AK-47 fire\" remark. Atiku commended the police's move, stating that such actions are condemnable and should apply equally to all politicians. He also expressed concern over selective enforcement, warning that it could embolden offenders and deepen public distrust in the security agencies.",
