Atiku expressed deep concern over the country’s current trajectory, emphasising the need for immediate action.

The former vice president hinted at a significant political move, stating that while he was not ready to reveal details, he would soon break his silence on Nigeria’s pressing issues.

“The time will come when I will speak extensively on national affairs, but for now, I urge Nigerians to stay vigilant and committed to securing the future of our nation,” he said.

The meeting brought together influential political figures, including Senator Ishaku Abbo, who reaffirmed Atiku’s leadership and influence beyond party affiliations.
