Former Vice President and PDP presidential candidate in the last general elections, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has expressed strong conviction that the merger of Nigeria’s opposition parties will bring about a United, stronger front against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Atiku disclosed this in Abuja on Tuesday when he hosted the national executive committee of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC).
“Today, during a meeting with the National Executive Committee of the Inter-Party Advisory Council Nigeria (IPAC), I emphasised the importance of protecting our democracy. I expressed concern over the APC’s actions, leading Nigeria towards a one-party dictatorship. I urged IPAC, led by Yabagi Sani, to rally opposition parties to form a stronger front against this threat.

I criticised INEC for conducting poor elections, including discrepancies in voter numbers. I called for the National Assembly to prioritise constitutional and electoral reforms, in particular electronic voting reforms, to ensure transparent elections and protect our democracy. I believe democracy, despite its flaws, is the best form of government, and I am committed to working with others in providing its preservation in Nigeria.”
The IPAC team was led to the visit by its National President Yabagi Sani.
