Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has declared that the North will rally behind him in 2027 general election.
According to him, the North politically appears much more united now than ever.
Atiku stated this on Wednesday while fielding questions on Arise Television’s Prime Time program.
The former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate also described the South-East as the political base of Mr Peter Obi.
Atiku said: “The North still remains my major political base because I won more northern states than many other states. I won only two in the South-West.
“I don’t think I won any in the South-East, right? Even politically, the North appears much more united now than ever. The majority of the North will always come together.
“The North will always rally behind me because that’s my political base as South-East is the political base of Mr Peter Obi and South-South political base of Rotimi Amaechi.”
DAILY POST reports that the former Vice President is leading a team of notable politicians that are now in the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Atiku also criticized President Bola Tinubu’s administration for the biting economic hardship in the country.
