He emphasized his commitment to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and expressed his loyalty to the party.

Atiku urged the public to disregard the rumours about his purported plans to float a new political party.

His words: ”I have been inundated with calls from our party members, supporters, and concerned Nigerians regarding the fabricated story in The Nation, Tinubu’s ragtag, alleging my departure from the PDP.

”Let me be unequivocal: this is pure mischief, devoid of truth. I reaffirm my unwavering loyalty to the PDP while advocating the swift merger of opposition parties. The urgency of this consolidation cannot be overstated.

”Tinubu’s relentless pursuit of personal agendas at the expense of national governance is glaring. His myopic focus on 2027 betrays a disregard for the pressing needs of the populace.

”It’s high time he ceased his bumbling escapades and prioritised the welfare of the people.

”My media team is vigorously countering his baseless claims. Let this be a wake-up call to all: the pursuit of power must not overshadow the imperative of effective governance.

”Together, let us propel Nigeria forward, leaving behind the antics of political charlatans.”
