The Atiku Movement (TAM) has lambasted Senator Adam Oshiomhole for describing former Vice President Atiku Abubakar as “Nigeria’s most famous political defector.”
In a statement issued on X on Monday, TAM “vehemently condemns Oshiomhole” for what it labeled a “deplorable and baseless attack” on Atiku during a recent television appearance.
Oshiomhole, speaking on the Politics Today programme on Channels Television on Tuesday, had suggested that no one was more qualified to author a book on party defections than the former Vice President himself.

Oshiomhole had traced Atiku’s repeated political shifts, citing them as evidence of a long-standing pattern driven by ambition rather than ideology.
In its response, TAM maintained that “the purported claims by Oshiomhole would not deter Atiku from continuing to give moral support to democratic forces across the country to ensure a better life for Nigerians.”
“Oshiomhole’s shameless retort, steeped in sycophancy, lays bare his tragic descent from a revered labour union champion to a grovelling mouthpiece for the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s corrupt and failing regime.
”TAM is outraged by Oshiomhole’s betrayal of the Edo people, whose trust he squandered by foisting an incompetent governor upon them to serve his selfish interests and those of his APC paymasters. His actions are a stark betrayal of the Nigerian masses, who yearn for leaders of integrity to deliver a better future.
“We demand that Oshiomhole seek forgiveness from God and the people of Edo, focus on his lacklustre senatorial duties, and cease his cowardly attacks on Atiku, a statesman whose vision for a united and prosperous Nigeria remains unmatched, ”TAM said.
