Adamu Atiku, son of former Nigerian Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has purchased the African Democratic Congress (ADC) Expression of Interest and Nomination Form to contest for the Adamawa South Senatorial seat.
In a statement issued on Friday, Adamu, a former commissioner in Adamawa State, said his decision to join the senatorial race followed wide consultations with stakeholders.
“After months of wide consultations, sincere reflections, and encouragement from constituents, stakeholders, supporters, and well-meaning citizens across Adamawa South, I have decided to answer the call to serve and formally join the race for the Adamawa South Senatorial seat.
“This decision did not come lightly. I chose to remain silent in the face of the growing calls and appeals from constituents and supporters across Adamawa South while I devoted time to consultations and careful reflection.
“The overwhelming confidence reposed in me and the consistent demand for purposeful, experienced, and people-oriented representation have been truly humbling.”
According to him, obtaining the nomination form on Thursday marked “the formal beginning of this journey and my commitment to offering myself for service to the good people of Adamawa South.
“This movement belongs to the people and is driven by our shared desire for purposeful representation, unity, and progress across Adamawa South.
“The journey has begun, and with the support of our people, we shall move forward together with unity, purpose, and determination.”
