The Vice Presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Rabi’u Kwankwaso, has asked the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar to quit his 2027 presidential ambition and support the NDC.
Kwankwaso made this appeal on Thursday while receiving members of the Fulani Farmers Association at his Abuja residence.
He asked Atiku to step down for the NDC ticket, pledging that he would be taken care of if the party wins the presidency.
“Step down for us; if we win, we will take care of you,” Kwankwaso said.
