The former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (<strong>PDP</strong>) recently spearheaded the formation of a coalition of opposition leaders aimed at unseating President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the next general election.</p>
<p>However, speculation remains over who will lead the alliance, with former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and ex-Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai being among the prominent figures considered.</p>
<p>When asked about his potential candidacy in 2027, Atiku responded, <em>“I don’t know because there has to be, first of all, a viable platform, more than any other time in the political history of this country, particularly since the return of democracy.”</em></p>
<p>Despite his uncertainty, Atiku, who has contested for the presidency six times, did not rule out the possibility of running again.</p>
<p>“<em>I have not seen Nigeria in such dire need of experienced and credible leadership as it is now. We had a similar merger in 2014. About three or four of us contested for president, and we all supported the one who emerged, and he won,”</em> he added.</p>
