ABUJA: Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has told President Bola Tinubu that his time was up, declaring that “the era of political complacency, propaganda and governance by deception is drawing to a close” and that Nigerians are preparing to reclaim their country through the power of the ballot.

“Let no one be deceived. The era of complacency is over. The era of propaganda is ending. The era of taking Nigerians for granted is coming to a close. The people are awake. The people are watching. With the support of Nigerians, a new chapter of competence, prosperity, security, and genuine hope shall begin. And when the time comes, they will deliver their verdict through the ballot,” he said on Friday in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu.
