Senator Danjuma Goje, a prominent Nigerian lawmaker, has stated that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar holds a commanding position within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and is unlikely to face any serious opposition for the party’s 2027 presidential ticket.
In a video interview shared by VOICE OF THE PEOPLE TV Senator Goje said that while the ADC has gained considerable momentum in recent times, it is still grappling with internal disputes.
He explained that the party’s internal structure remains unsettled due to lingering tensions between long-standing members and the influx of new political actors who joined en masse.
He noted that leadership disagreements have not yet been fully resolved, and some legal challenges remain pending.
Senator Goje said that despite these internal frictions, the presence of Atiku Abubakar has significantly shifted the balance of power within the ADC.
He emphasized that Atiku’s political stature, experience, and determination to secure the party’s presidential nomination place him far ahead of any potential contenders.
According to him, no other figure in the party currently possesses the influence or support base to challenge Atiku’s ambition.
Senator Goje said that although the ADC is not entirely free from internal conflict, the momentum behind Atiku’s candidacy is strong enough to overshadow the party’s internal divisions.
He believes that Atiku’s dominance could unify the party and position it as a formidable force ahead of the 2027 general elections.
