Former Vice President and ADC chieftain, Atiku Abubakar, has downplayed the political influence of key northern figures, including Rabiu Kwankwaso, Aminu Tambuwal, and Nasir El-Rufai.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time, Atiku insisted that he remains the most popular northern politician, claiming that none of the current or emerging leaders in the region can match his electoral strength.
He argued that despite their prominence, no northern politician has a wider voter base than him.
Atiku specifically said Kwankwaso’s influence is largely limited to Kano State, adding that even there, political support is now split between the former governor and Governor Abba Yusuf.
“Can you tell who is a current leader in the North who has more votes than I have? Talking of leaders like Tambuwal, Kwankwaso, El-Rufai and also the emerging political leaders, none of them have got that northern vote as much as I’ve got,” he said.
He added that Kano politics is currently divided, noting that Kwankwaso’s support is no longer exclusive within the state.

“Of course, if he is a contender, why not?” he added when pressed further.
He also noted that other aspirants such as Rabiu Kwankwaso and Rotimi Amaechi are also in the race for the ADC ticket.
The former presidential candidate explained that his stance reflects democratic principles, stressing that candidates can emerge either through consensus or election.
Atiku further expressed confidence that the North remains a strong political base for him ahead of 2027, saying the region continues to show unity and support in past elections.
