Or in a few hours. And you will see for yourself. You will be able to interrogate for yourself. That look, Atiku Abubakar \u2013 no state will be left out,\u201d Shaibu said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said Atiku\u2019s campaign would include town hall meetings and community visits, as well as rallies, and would reach local government areas and villages.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are not going to limit our campaign to just state capital or to just rallies. Atiku is already connected with the people. The people are hungry. People are dying. Do you understand? He needs to connect with them. He needs to listen to them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shaibu argued that economic hardship was affecting Nigerians across the country and said Atiku\u2019s appeal was not confined to the North.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs for the pathway, I\u2019ll tell you. Our pathway is clear and simple. The man who is hungry in Zamfara is the same as the man who is hungry in Lagos. Forget the noise,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHungry Nigerians will vote for Atiku Abubakar. Atiku\u2019s pathway is not limited to Northern Nigeria. Atiku\u2019s pathway is across the length and breadth of Nigeria,\u201d Shaibu added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Asked which southern states Atiku expected to win, he said, \u201cI will not just be bold; I will be audacious about it. Atiku will win the entire country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pledge contrasts with Tinubu\u2019s remarks at the inauguration of the APC Presidential Campaign Council in Abuja on October 14. The president said he would not travel with the campaign team to every rally, citing his duties in office and the country\u2019s financial obligations. Vanguard previously reported Tinubu\u2019s statement that \u201cthe responsibility of this office does not pause\u201d and that the campaign team should \u201cexcuse me from going everywhere with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ADC campaign council has also criticised Tinubu\u2019s reported plan to make personal appearances in 12 states, arguing that a presidential candidate seeking re-election should meet voters across the country.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/10\/2027-atiku-to-campaign-in-all-states-adc-campaign-council\/\">2027: Atiku to campaign in all states \u2014\u00a0ADC campaign council<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Vanguard News<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Adegboyega Adeleye The African Democratic Congress (ADC) says its presidential candidate, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, will campaign in all 36 states ahead of the 2027 presidential election, according to&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1370,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1369","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1369","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1369"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1369\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1370"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1369"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1369"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1369"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
