The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) says Nigerians should not vote for former vice-president Atiku Abubakar in the 2027 presidential election, citing a range of alleged corruption matters connected to him.
APC’s claims point to corruption allegations involving Siemens, the Mambilla Hydroelectric Power Project, and US Senate-linked scrutiny of suspicious financial transactions. Premium Times also links the party’s allegations to other named cases and controversies, including references tied to offshore and onshore financial scandals and past investigations involving individuals and funding arrangements, while noting allegations raised by the party. Legit.ng similarly reports that APC highlights the Siemens and Mambilla issues and draws attention to alleged US Senate investigations, alongside criticism of Atiku’s statements on fuel subsidy.
Across the two outlets, APC’s overall angle is that Atiku’s political bid for 2027 is undermined by unresolved or previously publicized allegations. The reporting differs mainly in which specific allegations and controversies each outlet emphasizes, but both describe the APC campaign messaging as centered on corruption allegations and calls for voters to reject Atiku.
