Atiku Abubakar, a former Nigerian presidential candidate, is set to lead a coalition of political leaders in a press conference today at 10:00 am at the Shehu Musa Yar’adua Centre in Abuja.

The conference is aimed at addressing President Bola Tinubu’s declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State.

The move is seen as a unified response from opposition leaders to the President’s decision, which has sparked controversy and debate.

Details of the press conference are still emerging, but sources indicate that Atiku will be joined by other prominent political figures.

This development comes amid growing tensions between the federal government and opposition parties.

The declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State has been met with criticism from various quarters, with some arguing that it undermines the principles of democracy and federalism.

As the press conference is set to commence, all eyes are on Atiku and the coalition of leaders to see how they will respond to the President’s decision and what implications this may have for the country’s political landscape.
