Atiku made this statement on Tuesday through his media adviser, Paul Ibe, emphasizing that all aspirants will have the opportunity to present themselves freely.
He also urged Nigerians to resist attempts by the All Progressives Congress (APC) to intimidate and undermine the opposition.
These comments followed speculation that he is under pressure to step aside for a Southern candidate to be the ADC’s nominee in the upcoming election against President Bola Tinubu.
