Atiku Reacts To Son’s Defection To APC

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.
