ABUJA: Presidential Candidate of the African Democratic Congress ADC, Atiku Abubakar, has disclosed that his legal team has been instructed to approach the Supreme Court for a definitive determination of the issues arising from a recent Court of Appeal judgment, even as he insisted that his presidential bid remains on track despite the ruling.
Speaking through his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu on Monday evening in Abuja, Atiku urged party members and millions of Nigerians yearning for genuine democratic change to remain calm, resolute and focused.
According to him, contrary to misleading narratives being aggressively circulated in some quarters, the Court of Appeal did not invalidate the ADC’s primary elections conducted for the nomination of candidates for the 2027 general elections.
“Those celebrating today should celebrate with caution. Those attempting to sell false hope to their supporters should remember that political propaganda can never substitute for judicial pronouncements,” he said.
