Former Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Political Matters, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, ex-presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar against competing for the Presidency in 2027.

Baba-Ahmed stated Atiku should support a younger presidential candidate in 2027 and perform a fatherly role to the individual.

During his appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday evening, he gave the advice.

According to Baba-Ahmed, the All Progressives Congress, APC, will be taken to the “cleaners” by a younger Atiku presidential candidate.

He said: “If I have the chance to sit with Atiku, I would say to him- Sir, you have done your bit, you have held up the democratic process, you represented it well, your name has been written in gold, it’s time to yield the ground to a younger person; don’t run in 2027, play a fatherly role.

“Find a good and young person. If he were to field a younger person that is more capable with less skeletons in their cupboard, somebody with less liabilities, in age, health, and everything; they will take APC to the cleaners.”

He maintained that the wrong people are joining the ruling party as it expands.

The majority of those switching to the APC, according to Baba-Ahmed, are either seeking jobs or escaping the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

“APC is growing with the wrong people, all these defections is aimed at one thing, they are looking for positions or running away from EFCC.

“The people running into the APC from all over the place are actually a liability, it’s simple a refugee camp that will burst,” he added.
