On Sunday, Phrank Shaibu, Special Assistant on Public Communication to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, stated that attempts to penetrate the leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition are “obvious and have been unsuccessful.”

Shaibu cautioned that those responsible for the hardships faced by Nigerians will not be allowed to take control of the ADC coalition’s leadership.

Responding to Aviation and Aerospace Development Minister Festus Keyamo’s suggestion that ADC should choose Peter Obi as its presidential candidate, Shaibu argued that leaders who have failed Nigeria have no authority to advise the ADC coalition on how to address the country’s challenges.

In a statement he titled: “The Plot Is Clear And It Has Failed,” Atiku’s aide cautioned the coalition leaders against allowing planted narratives to take root within ADC.

He said: “They infiltrated us in 2023, and after rigging themselves into power, the vagabonds they planted shamelessly joined them in celebration. Now, they’re at it again but this time, the people know better. Why should the architects of our misery be the ones prescribing our leaders?

“The very day we unveiled our platform, the cock didn’t even crow once before Festus Keyamo let the cat out of the bag prescribing, without invitation, that Peter Obi should be given the ADC ticket. Not out of goodwill, but as part of a calculated ploy to sow discord, ignite conflict, and break the momentum of unity.

“When we begin to attack ourselves, question each other’s intentions, and allow planted narratives to take root, we are dancing to their tune. This is the oldest trick in the book: divide us, distract us, and dominate us.

“Let’s pause and ask the obvious: Why would those who failed Nigeria be the ones telling us how to fix it? Why are our oppressors suddenly so invested in the internal decisions of a coalition formed to rescue the country from them?

“In moments like this, the greatest danger is turning on one another. These forces thrive on confusion, suspicion, and internal conflict. Their goal is simple: weaken our bond and break our resolve.

“We’ve seen it all before. In 2023, they planted agents in our camps, twisted our narratives, and disrupted our momentum. It worked once. But never again. This time, Nigerians are alert. Eyes open. Hearts ready.

“They fear our unity because it is the one thing they cannot control.

“They fear our movement because it is powered by the people.

“They have no vision, no record, no future only fear and desperation.

“But this is our time. And we’re not backing down. We are not divided. We are not distracted. We are ADC all the way.”
