Atiku Abubakar, the former vice president, has declared that the coalition being built to remove the All Progressives Congress, or APC, from office “is not a joke” and that the 2027 election will be difficult.

In a statement he shared on social media on Tuesday, Atiku said he was speaking to the Kannywood delegation and important North West thought leaders who were paying him a courtesy call.

The former PDP presidential candidate stated to have informed the delegation that, “the opposition coalition being put together is not a joke, and it will soon be unveiled.

“I told the visiting forum that the envisaged coalition is a deliberate effort to recover and rebuild Nigeria in line with the yearnings and aspirations of the people”.

According to Atiku, the new media industry’s North West stakeholders told him that they are forming a coalition to support the Coalition of opposition political leaders before 2027.

“Dr Aslam Aliyu, a top Zamfara politician who leads the PAA 2027, NEW MEDIA & DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS FORUM, a coalition of digital media stakeholders, led the delegation.

“The forum is comprised of members of Kannywood, Zamfara TOP 10, and other groups.

“The forum informed me that their commitment is predicated on a review of the outcome of the 2023 polls and the voter awareness and information gaps identified.

“Some members of the forum, who played roles in the election of the President Tinubu-led APC government, expressed deep regrets about foisting an incompetent and clueless leadership on Nigeria and expressed a commitment to back the ongoing coalition efforts of opposition leaders.

“I assured the forum that 2027 will not be business as usual”, the statement added.
