Atiku Advocates for New Movement to Salvage Nigeria

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has emphasised the need for a new movement to correct Nigeria’s current

trajectory, warning that failure to act will result in the country’s children becoming “slaves in their fatherland”.

Atiku made this statement during a coalition meeting in Yola, which brought together members from various political

parties. Atiku stressed that Nigeria is no longer moving in the right direction and requires re-engineering to ensure

citizens enjoy the benefits of democracy.

He urged Nigerians to be vigilant and work in the country’s best interest, hinting that the new movement will be the

solution to Nigeria’s problems.

Senator Ishaku Abbo, who organised the meeting, expressed his support for Atiku, stating that any platform the

former Vice President chooses will be their party. Abbo’s statement underscores the level of trust and confidence in

Atiku’s leadership.

The meeting, attended by representatives from 21 local government areas in Adamawa State, demonstrated a strong

desire for positive change in Nigeria. Atiku commended the large turnout, seeing it as a clear indication that Nigerians

are eager for a better future.
