Atiku Vows To Resist Election Rigging

Former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, has vowed to stand against rigging of elections in Nigeria.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain made the pledge when he received a delegation of Gombe stakeholders led by a former minister, Senator Idris Abdullahi, in Abuja late Friday.

Atiku, on his X handle, noted that Nigerians cannot continue to suffer amidst an abundance of resources due to bad governance.

He said, “Yesterday, I vowed to stand against the stealing of elections and oppose bad governance. I stressed that enough is enough, and that Nigerians cannot continue to suffer amidst an abundance of resources owing to bad governance.”

He said the coalition of opposition leaders under the umbrella of the ADC would work assiduously to usher in a positive change that would transform people’s lives.

“The quality of the interim leadership shows that we are ready to bring integrity to the process and give Nigerians the responsible leadership they deserve.

“I am further inspired by the Gombe stakeholders’ pledge of total support and loyalty to the decision of the coalition by joining the ADC.

“The group reminded me that I laid the foundation for the development of Gombe when I supported the election of Danjuma Goje as governor in 2003,” he said.
