As Nigeria gears up for the 2027 presidential election, the President of ECK Foundation, Chief Dr. Emeka Kalu, a renowned advocate for good governance, is calling on Nigerians to throw their weight behind Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. According to Dr. Kalu, Atiku possesses the qualities, experience, and vision necessary to rescue Nigeria from its current economic woes.
Dr. Kalu, who is also the Director General of Global Initiatives For Good Governance (GIGG), believes that Atiku’s impressive track record in leadership, particularly during his tenure as Vice President, makes him the ideal candidate to revive Nigeria’s economy. Atiku’s efforts in promoting economic liberalization, trade investments, and job creation have earned him a reputation as a “rational game-changer”.
Dr. Kalu lamented the state of Nigeria’s economy, citing rising hunger, high cost of living, naira depreciation, insecurity, and unemployment. He argued that the country needs a leader with the wisdom, character, sound education, and detribalized mindset to govern effectively. In his opinion, Atiku fits the bill.
Furthermore, Dr. Kalu emphasized the need for Nigerians to stop supporting corrupt politicians for personal gain. Instead, he urged citizens to rally behind selfless, capable, trusted, and competent leaders like Atiku, who can restore the country to its former glory.
With the 2027 presidential election looming, Dr. Kalu’s endorsement of Atiku Abubakar is a significant boost to the latter’s campaign. As Nigerians prepare towards 2027 political season, they would do well to consider Dr. Kalu’s words and evaluate Atiku’s qualifications for themselves. Will Nigerians heed Dr. Kalu’s call and support Atiku’s bid for the presidency? Only time will tell.
