As the political landscape begins to shift ahead of the 2027 general elections, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has officially declared his intention to run for President of Nigeria.
Reacting to the announcement, the publisher of NN News Media, Nkiruka Nistoran, took to her X (formerly Twitter) handle with a bold endorsement, stating:
“Meet the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; a leader whose presidency is poised to honor and complete the legacy of the late President Umar Musa Yar’Adua.”
Nistoran’s statement echoes sentiments among some political observers who view Atiku as a steady hand capable of continuing the late Yar’Adua’s vision for governance rooted in transparency, justice, and national unity.
Atiku’s declaration is expected to stir significant attention and shape early alignments as the 2027 race begins to take form.
