Reason Tinubu Will Lose in 2027 - Aregbesola

Former Minister of Interior and National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Rauf Aregbesola, has said President Bola Tinubu will lose the 2027 general elections.

Aregbesola stated that despite the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) displaying confidence, the African Democratic Congress would take over power both at the federal and state levels.

He made the remark on Saturday in Ilorin while speaking with journalists after commissioning the new Kwara State secretariat of the ADC along Basin Road.

“If APC is confident of its strength, it won’t be so hyped and charged as to be hounding and hunting opposition all over the place.

“How can we interpret what APC is doing all over Nigeria to us? They are harassing and intimidating everyone of our members, not just our leaders but nationwide, be it Lagos, Kebbi, Kaduna.

“If indeed they are confident of the strength they are showcasing, one would expect that they will be so calm but reverse is the case, so what does that tell you?

“They themselves know that they are not popular and the party that will harvest their unpopularity is ADC.

“Regardless of the grandstanding, by the grace of God, ADC will take over the mantle of leadership in Nigeria and in most of the state,” he said.

Reacting to recent defections by some governors to the APC, Aregbesola described them as enemies of the people.

Also speaking at the event, former Kwara State Governor Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed, who recently left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the ADC, told journalists that the party was ready to take over leadership of the country.
