Atiku cautions against attacks on himself, Obi, says only APC ‘urban bandits’ gain
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar urges Nigerians to stop insulting opposition leaders like Peter Obi, saying such attacks only benefit APC “urban bandits” and weaken national unity.
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has warned Nigerians against insulting or attacking political leaders, especially Peter Obi, saying such actions undermine national unity and do not serve the country’s interests.
In a statement issued through the Coalition of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku said personal attacks on opposition figures only deepen division and play into the hands of their political rivals.
“Anyone who insults Obi or Atiku do not mean well for the leaders, the Coalition ADC, or for Nigeria and Nigerians. The only beneficiaries of such civil discord are the APC urban bandits who seek to maintain the satanic status quo,” the statement read.
Atiku urged Nigerians to focus on unity and constructive engagement, stressing that cooperation among leaders and citizens is essential for national progress.
“We are better together,” the statement concluded, calling for solidarity in the pursuit of democratic governance and development.
