Joe Igbokwe’s Insight on Atiku’s Electoral Chances for 2027
Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has advised former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to shelve his ambition for the 2027 presidential election, suggesting that it “can’t fly” and that he should consider waiting until 2031.
Igbokwe, known for his outspoken political commentary, made this statement in response to Atiku’s persistent bids for the presidency.
He argued that Atiku has had multiple opportunities to contest, but Nigerians have consistently chosen other candidates.
According to Igbokwe, the political dynamics in Nigeria are shifting, and Atiku’s chances of securing victory in 2027 appear slim.
Igbokwe’s remarks come as political discussions and alignments begin to take shape ahead of the next electoral cycle.
Atiku, the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 elections, has yet to publicly confirm his intentions for 2027, though his recent activities signal he remains politically active.
