Nigeria’s former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has officially submitted his expression of interest and nomination forms to contest the 2027 presidential election.

The seasoned politician is seeking the Presidential ticket on the platform of the African Democratic Congress, ADC.

The move drew massive crowds of loyalists to the party’s national headquarters, signaling his formal entry into the race.

A large crowd of supporters and party faithful packed the venue, sparking rowdy scenes as Atiku arrived to submit his documents.

The submission follows his recent N90 million nomination fee payment to the ADC.

Atiku is seen as a major force in Nigerian politics, retaining a strong, multi-regional support base across his previous presidential runs.

His formal entry into the ADC primary race is expected to expand the political base for the 2027 presidential elections
