Ayodele Fayose, the former Governor of Ekiti State, has urged ex-Vice President Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to cease his participation in future elections across the nation.
Fayose, speaking during an interview on Channels TV on Sunday, downplayed the likelihood of his party, the PDP, and Atiku as candidate defeating the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the upcoming 2027 presidential election.
GistReel reports that Atiku unsuccessfully ran for President in Nigeria in 1993, 2007, 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023, with three losses occurring at primaries.
And following the controversies surrounding the party, Atiku may be in the queue again for the 2027 presidential elections.
The 77-year-old, in an interview with Voice of America Hausa earlier this year said “God willing”, when asked whether he would try again.
However, Fayose said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics while speaking on the crisis in the PDP that Atiku should rather stay away from politics of contesting elections again.
He said, ”By the time Asiwaju(Bola Tinubu) will finish, Atiku Abubakar will probably be 80 or 81 so what will be the attraction?
“We should leave the stage when the ovation is loudest, I respect him and I think Nigerians are craving for a younger generation than ever before so on what basis will Atiku come and contest again.”
Lamenting the leadership crisis rocking the party, the former governor said PDP members no longer have a party.
”As I always say, we can defeat the APC but when we don’t have a party again, how can we defeat them?” He queried.
He said, “when we complain about the APC and we don’t have a party and you can say you will do this and that, but when Obi is the voice of the opposition now.
“The press will call Obi than call the PDP and when the Publicity Secretary is suspending people and vice-versa, so where is the party?”
