Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has vowed that the 2027 presidential election will be his final attempt at the presidency.
Atiku made the disclosure during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme on Wednesday.
“The 2027 election will be my last outing,” he said.
The former presidential candidate, who has contested for the office since 1992, said Nigeria faces a leadership challenge, adding that he represents both experience and vision for the country’s future.
When asked why should Nigerians take the risk of choosing him after so many previous attempts, considering his age, the ex-Vice President said Nigeria has leadership problem, adding that his experience as a former Vice President and military governor of a state set him apart from President Tinubu.
“There is a clear and stark difference, take the cases if state governors in a number of state being headed by relatively young people and failing woefully simply because at the apex, they do not have capable and experienced president to guide them and to give them the benefit of his experience.
“That’s why we have been having a number of woeful leadership in a number if state because they are being headed by inexperienced young men,” he said.
