  "account": "Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar declared in Akure, Ondo State that President Bola Tinubu must vacate the Presidential Villa during the 2027 general election. He accused Tinubu's administration of exacerbating the hardship faced by Nigerians. Atiku, who served as Vice President between 1999 and 2007, vowed to restore subsidy, security, and economic stability if elected. He also welcomed former Ondo State governorship candidate and ADC member, Eyitayo Jegede, as well as Jegede's supporters, into the ADC. Jegede explained that he defected from the PDP to join the ADC due to unemployment, economic hardship, and rising living costs in Nigeria. He expressed confidence in ADC's prospects in the 2027 elections, stating that the party would mobilize and unite its supporters to contest for the presidency, Senate, and House of Representatives.",
