‘Party Delegates Special Breed of People’ – Shehu Sani Doubts Atiku Losing Coalition Primaries

A former Senator representing Kaduna Central, Mr. Shehu Sani, has expressed doubt that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar would lose the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition primaries ahead of the 2027 elections.
This comes after Atiku, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), reportedly admitted that he would back a younger candidate if he loses the primary election.
Reacting to the development on Thursday, Sani stated: “His Excellency the Waziri reportedly said he would step aside if ‘a younger candidate wins the primaries’…The key word here is primaries.
“It’s easier for camel to pass through the hole of a needle than to beat the Waziri in primaries…Party delegates are special breed of people.”
