Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar says the decision of his son, Abba Abubakar, to join the All Progressives Congress, APC, is entirely personal.
Alhaji Abubakar notes that, In a democracy, such choices like that of his son, are neither unusual nor alarming, even when family and politics intersect.
“As a democrat, I do not coerce my own children in matters of conscience, and I certainly will not coerce Nigerians” .
“What truly concerns me is the poor governance of the APC and the severe economic and social hardships it has imposed on our people” .
The Former Vice President and Leader of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, however, said he remained resolute in working with like-minded patriots to restore good governance and offer Nigerians a credible alternative that would bring relief, hope, and progress to the Nation.
