2027: 'Anti-Tinubu Coalition of Corruption,' Atiku's Former Ally Mentions Why ADC Backers Will Fail
The Africa Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition, challenging President Tinubu's APC party, is believed to be led by Atiku and Peter Obi, both runners-up in the 2023 presidential election.
Interestingly, David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola, the former Senate President and ex-governor of Osun state, respectively, were appointed as the interim chairman and secretary of the ADC by the coalition movement.

Speaking at the Southwest Town hall meeting of the Alternative in Abeokuta, Ogun state, Showunmi, a former spokesperson of former vice president Atiku Abubakar, described the platform as a coalition of corruption and mismanagement, Daily Trust reported.
“So, when people ask me what I have to say about the coalition or whatever they call it? I will just say, the merry-go-round of the musical chair they have been doing since 1992 did not work them and will not work now,” he said.
As reported by Daily Trust, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain said Nigerians have up to next year to decide if they will re-elect President Bola Tinubu or not.
He, however, ruled out the leaders in the coalition, saying it will be a waste of time if Nigerians entrust them with power.
“In the meantime, we may not know who can to be fit in, but we know these ones can not do anything. It will be a waste of everybody’s time even if they try it,” he said.
Showunmi added that the PDP, as an alternative, was created to deepen Nigerian democracy.
“We must all come together to salvage the country,” he said.
