Atiku Breaks Silence On Obasanjo Visit: ‘Not About 2027 Elections

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar visited former President Olusegun Obasanjo at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Monday.

Arriving at 12:36 p.m. with political associates, including former Governors Liyel Imoke and Aminu Tambuwal, as well as Senator Abdul Ningi, Atiku engaged in a closed-door meeting with Obasanjo that lasted approximately one and a half hours.

Upon emerging at 2:11 p.m., Atiku addressed journalists, stating, “It’s just a courtesy visit, please. I am not going to talk about politics.”

This visit occurs amid ongoing discussions among opposition leaders about forming a coalition ahead of the 2027 general elections. Recently, Atiku has been seen holding a series of meetings with top opposition figures, fueling speculation about a grand alliance to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress.
