PRESS RELEASE
Reports of Atiku Abubakar’s Resignation from PDP Are Malicious Lies and a Political Hatchet Job
We ordinarily would not waste words on faceless social media platforms like the so-called “Adamawa Happenings.” However, in light of inquiries from concerned Nigerians and credible members of the press, we are compelled to set the record straight:
His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, former Vice President of Nigeria (1999–2007) and Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has not — we repeat, has not — resigned from the PDP. He remains a steadfast, bonafide, and loyal member of the party.
The source of this baseless rumour is a Facebook page peddling falsehoods, evidently orchestrated by desperate political operatives with nothing but mischief and confusion on their agenda. It is a calculated attempt to mislead the public and sow discord among the millions of Nigerians who look to Atiku Abubakar for direction and leadership.
This is not just fake news — it is a crude, shameless political hatchet job.
We urge Nigerians, especially supporters of the Waziri Adamawa, to disregard this malicious fabrication. It is a vile, vexatious ploy that deserves nothing but contempt.
Atiku Abubakar remains committed to the ideals of the PDP and to the democratic aspirations of the Nigerian people.
