Former media aide to the late ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Lauretta Onochie, has explained why former Vice President Atiku Abubakar is the best choice to emerge as the African Democratic Congress, ADC, flag bearer ahead of the party’s presidential primary.

Onochie explained that only Atiku can give ADC the strongest opportunity to win the 2027 presidential election and govern Nigeria.

In a statement, the former presidential aide said if ADC aspires to make history, its members should ensure that Atiku emerges as the party’s candidate.

The timetable by the ADC stated that the party’s presidential primary is scheduled to hold today, Monday.

Onochie said: “Politics is not an award for effort, it is not about sentiments. It is a test of preparedness, capacity, national reach and the ability to win power and govern effectively.

As ADC prepares for its 2027 Presidential Primary, members must ask one question above all else: Who gives ADC the strongest opportunity to win Nigeria and govern successfully? For many party faithful, the answer is clear: HE. Atiku Abubakar.

“Atiku brings to the table what very few politicians in Nigeria can legitimately claim, experience, national acceptance, coalition-building capacity, economic understanding and political resilience.

“If ADC desires not simply to make history but to win history, then members must choose a candidate with national scale, tested endurance and the capacity to convert aspiration into government.

“The Primary is the contest. The General Election is the mission. The Presidency is the destination.”
