Former Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Political Matters, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has advised Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ex-presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to refrain from running for the presidency in 2027.

Baba-Ahmed suggested that Atiku should instead support a younger presidential candidate in the upcoming election and assume a fatherly role to that individual.

He made these comments during an appearance on Channels Television�s Politics Today on Thursday night.

Baba-Ahmed expressed his belief that a younger presidential candidate backed by Atiku would pose a significant challenge to the All Progressives Congress (APC), potentially defeating them decisively.

He stated, �If I have the chance to sit with Atiku, I would say to him – Sir, you have done your bit, you have held up the democratic process, you represented it well, your name has been written in gold, it�s time to yield the ground to a younger person; don�t run in 2027, play a fatherly role.

�Find a good and young person. If he were to field a younger person that is more capable with less skeletons in their cupboard, somebody with less liabilities, in age, health, and everything; they will take APC to the cleaners.�

Baba-Ahmed criticized the ruling party, asserting that it is attracting individuals with questionable motives.

He claimed, �APC is growing with the wrong people, all these defections are aimed at one thing, they are looking for positions or running away from EFCC.

�The people running into the APC from all over the place are actually a liability; it�s simply a refugee camp that will burst.�
