1 / 2

On April 15, 2026, Atiku Abubakar appeared on Arise Television’s Prime Time Special to discuss unity within the African Democratic Congress coalition. He emphasized that consensus remains the preferred route for selecting the party’s presidential candidate. If a consensus fails to emerge, he said, the ADC would hold a direct primary and he would support whoever wins. When asked about stepping aside for Peter Obi, he replied that he would back Obi if he proves to be the most popular contender.

I'm not sure endorsements alone can unite the ADC; voters need clear policies, not just party agreements.
