Atiku Abubakar, the ADC presidential candidate, says he understands the pain Nigerians are carrying.

In a post on his official account on Wednesday, he said parents are struggling to feed their children and pensioners have to choose between food and medicine.

He also said young workers find that transport, rent and basic needs take all they earn.

He added that many families live in fear of kidnapping and attacks.

He urged registered voters to collect their Permanent Voter Cards and keep them safe, calling the card a tool for peaceful change.

He blamed President Tinubu's government for the high cost of living and promised to make life affordable again and restore security if elected.

My fellow Nigerians, young and old, I know the pain you are carrying. Parents go to bed worried about what they will feed their children tomorrow. Pensioners must choose between buying medicine and buying food. Young people work hard, yet transport, rent and basic needs consume what they earn. And across the country, families live with the fear of kidnapping, attacks and whether their loved ones will return home safely. No family should have to face hunger and insecurity at the same time. We cannot allow this hardship and fear to become the future our children inherit. If you are a registered voter, please go and collect your PVC. Hold on to it. It is your voice, your choice and your peaceful power to demand change. Bola made life expensive. I will work to make life affordable again and restore the security every Nigerian deserves. Let us stand together, across generations, and vote for a Nigeria where every family can live with dignity, safety and hope. -AA
