Reacting to the interview, Yul Edochie took to X on Thursday, April 16, where he shared a message about the political coalition.
“ADC, men wey don chop Nigeria individually before. Now they have gathered as a group to chop the final one and finish Nigeria completely,” he wrote.
The actor also commented on a protest organised by members of the ADC against the Independent National Electoral Commission.
He questioned the track record of individuals leading the coalition, arguing that many had previously held key positions in government without making a significant impact.
“I looked at the ADC led protest & I laughed. All the front men in ADC have been in high positions in Government before but they achieved nothing. Absolutely nothing. They made zero impact in the lives of the citizens. Na them wan fix Nigeria? I stand firmly with President TINUBU,” he added.
During his Arise News appearance, Atiku criticised the current administration and outlined his position ahead of the next election cycle.
He also reflected on his political journey, noting that the 2027 contest would mark the final chapter of his presidential ambition.
