Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, on Tuesday, raised the alarm that the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, is bent on wrecking the country, vowing however that “we are ready to stop them from doing so”.
Atiku said this in Abuja while playing host to the State Chairmen of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), from the 36 States of the Federation and the FCT, at his residence in Abuja.
Also, the former Vice President emphasised that there is no time to waste by the ADC rescue mission and encouraged other members and leaders of the coalition to register with the party formally.
“There can be no sitting on the fence”, he declared.
