Former Vice President and presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has expressed deep regret over his role in the formation of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2014, saying the country’s current situation has deteriorated further under the party’s administration.
“I regret being among those who helped form the APC in 2014 to remove Goodluck Jonathan from office. Today, the situation has become even worse under the present administration,” Atiku said.
He reflected on the political exercise of 2014 with a note of caution. “But with a note of caution, you see, we did this exercise in 2014. Not so, we came together and formed APC because we felt democracy was faulty in 2014,” he added.
Atiku further highlighted the lack of progress since then, saying, “Only for us to end up at the same position we found ourselves in 2014. It was, because 2014 the major challenges was insecurity here and there, economy and so on and so forth. Now it is even worse than what we fought in 2014.”
He concluded with a call for renewed commitment to democratic ideals: “So we must have that in mind, that in the event, and we must succeed to make sure that we restore true democracy to our country.”
<p>CUPP has condemned APC for failing to address insecurity, urging Nigerians to reject the party in 2027 elections.</p>

According to <a href="https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=1810024501" target="_blank">Statistics Canada</a>, the average retail price for a dozen eggs in Canada was $4.42 in June 2024, and it went up to $4.85 by November.
</p><p> But if you're willing to venture just outside Montreal, you can grab fresh, farm-raised eggs at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pondoirhdjj/" target="_blank">Pondoir HDJJ</a> in Repentigny for a steal. The farm, run by the Guillemette-Claude family, sells its eggs for only $3.50 per dozen, but the real bargain is buying in bulk — $8.75 for 30 eggs, which works out to just 29 cents each. That's a steal compared to what you'd pay in stores.
</p><p> Plus, they often run promotions when their chickens are a little more productive.

</blockquote><script async="" defer="" src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script><p> As part of the <a href="https://oeuf.ca/producteurs/les-fermes/danny-guillemette-et-helene-claude/#" target="_blank">Fédération des producteurs d'œufs du Québec</a>, the Guillemette-Claude clan has been producing fresh, high-quality eggs since 2009. Starting with just 6,600 hens, they now manage 33,000 laying hens and pride themselves on providing affordable, nutritious eggs directly to consumers.
</p><p> Montreal-based Instagrammer <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ninebbrah/" target="_blank">Nineb Mikhail</a> recently featured the farm in a viral video. He intentionally kept the name of the spot under wraps, trying to keep it a bit lowkey, but despite his efforts, he couldn't help but get his followers curious about the local hack.
</p><p> Mikhail described the process of picking up his order as "so easy" and highlighted an interesting detail: "These eggs are fresh and never refrigerated, so you can keep them on your counter for almost two weeks."
</p><p>With that in mind, it might be wise to store them in the fridge (just to be on the safe side). </p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFWbZ5cpE6H/" data-instgrm-version="4" style="background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);">
