Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has strongly dismissed circulating claims that he has stepped aside or retired from active politics, describing the report as entirely false and deliberately misleading.
In a statement issued on Monday, March 30, 2026, the Atiku Media Office said the rumour which alleged that Atiku made the announcement during a meeting with stakeholders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has no basis.
“The only recent engagement he had was with stakeholders of the ADC in Adamawa State last Thursday,” the media team clarified.

They emphasised that a decision as fundamental as exiting active politics would never be communicated through rumours, faceless sources, or third-party fabrication.
“Such a decision, if ever taken, would be formally conveyed through the Atiku Media Office,” the statement added.
The media office described the claim as bearing “all the hallmarks of a coordinated disinformation campaign designed to create confusion, dampen momentum, and mislead the Nigerian public.”

It further alleged that only the government and its agents could have sponsored the “desperate narrative out of fear of what is coming,” pointing to anti-democratic elements unsettled by the growing national consensus to rescue Nigeria from the failures of the current administration.
The statement urged supporters of Atiku Abubakar, members of the ADC, and all well-meaning Nigerians to disregard the fake news entirely and remain focused on the collective effort to reclaim and rebuild the nation.

Atiku Abubakar, who was the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, has since been actively involved in opposition politics and coalition-building efforts, including alignment with the ADC, as part of preparations for the 2027 general elections.

Hi,
Your competitors are teaching AI their business
The businesses moving early are using AI to:
– Respond to customer questions without delay
– Capture leads automatically
– Separate casual visitors from ready-to-act prospects
– Handle repetitive support
– Remove the friction created by old website flows
Most businesses are still asking visitors to:
– Browse page after page
– Navigate menus instead of asking direct questions
– Submit forms and wait
That model is already losing strength.
Businesses that teach AI their services today will be harder to compete with tomorrow.
Visitors do not want to hunt through a website. They want to ask and get answers.
The business that responds first, clearly, and intelligently gets the advantage.
