The All Progressives Congress (APC) has stated that the resignation of former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not driven by ideology, but by a relentless personal pursuit.
Naijaonpoint reports that Atiku resigned from the PDP on Wednesday, citing irreconcilable differences within the party.
Atiku’s resignation signals readiness to solidify ties with the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Reacting, the APC’s Lagos spokesman, Seye Oladejo, in a Wednesday statement, said the development confirms the PDP’s internal collapse and Atiku’s continued lack of political consistency.
Oladejo stated that Atiku’s defection will not boost ADC’s chances or dent APC’s dominance in Lagos or nationwide.
According to him, Atiku’s move allows voters to evaluate the integrity and consistency of those aspiring to lead.
He said, “Atiku’s actions reflect ambition without principle, not driven by ideology but by relentless personal pursuit.
“The APC stands as the only party delivering real governance, economic gains, and solid infrastructure.”
Oladejo further reaffirmed APC’s commitment to national unity, sustainable progress, and purposeful leadership, urging party loyalists in Lagos to remain united and active at the grassroots for electoral success.
He added that political instability often trails Atiku, and Nigeria deserves more than recycled politics.
He state, “Victory depends on our unity, past performance, and focus on people-centred development.
“Nigerians deserve visionary leadership, not theatrical comebacks. APC is prepared to lead and win.”
