Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has expressed solidarity with former Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, following a violent attack on his convoy in Birnin Kebbi.
In a statement released by Muhammad Al-Amin, Zonal Coordinator of the Malami Support Organization, Atiku condemned the attack and urged Malami not to waver in his efforts to uphold democratic values and protect Nigerians from anti-democratic elements.

In response, Malami expressed gratitude for Atiku’s support and solidarity. He described the attack as a deeply troubling incident and emphasized its broader implications, warning that the politicization of violence poses a serious risk to democratic institutions.
Malami added that the attack in Kebbi State remains a stark reminder of the dangers facing political leaders and the urgent need to protect democratic processes from partisan manipulation.
