This was disclosed in a post the 2023 presidential candidate shared on his X handle on Thursday, May 14.
In a video accompanying the post, the atmosphere around the party headquarters became rowdy as Atiku’s supporters and loyalists thronged the venue ahead of his arrival, struggling to gain access into the hall where the submission exercise was scheduled to take place.

The submission of nomination forms marks another major step in Atiku’s expected bid for the presidency in the 2027 general elections.
