Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Thursday held a closed-door meeting with members of the Legislative Forum of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Abuja.
The meeting took place at his residence and has already stirred political conversations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Though details of the discussion were not made public, early signals suggest it may not be unconnected to ongoing alignments within the opposition.
Atiku disclosed the meeting in a post shared on his verified X account. He confirmed that the delegation was led by Uko Nkole, who heads the ADC Legislative Forum.
“This afternoon, I hosted the Legislative Forum of our great party, the African Democratic Congress, ADC, led by Hon.Uko Nkole, at my residence in Abuja.
“I am deeply grateful for their visit and unwavering commitment to delivering success for ADC in the upcoming general elections.
“Nigeria shall Arise and Shine when we stand together.”
The visit comes at a time when political activities are gradually picking up across party lines, with key figures holding strategic meetings and consultations. Observers believe such engagements point to early groundwork being laid ahead of 2027.
Atiku, a former presidential candidate, remains a central figure in Nigeria’s opposition politics. His recent moves have continued to attract attention, especially as parties begin internal restructuring and alliance talks.
While neither Atiku nor the ADC lawmakers disclosed specific outcomes of the meeting, insiders say discussions likely focused on party strengthening, legislative coordination, and broader electoral strategy.
