Baba-Ahmed Says Tinubu Faces Defeat in 2027 If He’s Truly Smart

According to Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, the former Labour Party vice presidential candidate, President Bola Tinubu should not run for reelection in 2027 because his term is over.
The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) should already be aware that they will lose the general elections in 2027, Baba-Ahmed emphasized in his appearance on Arise Television’s Prime Time on Friday.
“I expect Tinubu to give up if he is that intelligent politician that he turns out to be,” Baba-Ahmed said, emphasizing that the president and the APC could see it was unlikely that they would win in 2027.

Baba-Ahmed reportedly causticly referred to Tinubu as a “super-smart politician” who orchestrated political maneuvers from 2007 till the contentious 2023 presidential race, taking aim at his political approach.
“He skipped 2007 and jokingly made Atiku (presidential) candidate, made Ribadu and somebody 2011 and Buhari in 2015, Buhari won, and then skipped 2019 and they stole 2023,” he said, mocking Tinubu’s political maneuvers. Everything that he will lose in 2027 is there for him if he is so intelligent.

According to the LP chieftain, growing public discontent will cause Tinubu’s electoral success-based plan to backfire in the next elections.

Tinubu could lose in 2027 to one of two potential contenders, Baba-Ahmed said. In addition, he asserted that “it has been proven that APC is a lie” and that Tinubu will not fulfill the promises he made to Nigerians during the campaign.

According to Baba-Ahmed, the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari failed to live up to its promises to the Nigerian people, especially when it came to security, development, and anti-corruption initiatives. “Buhari did not develop Nigeria, Buhari did not provide security, and Buhari did not fight corruption,” he added, calling into question Tinubu’s prospects. Tinubu won’t do this either.

Nigerians Will Join Forces To Remove Ineffective Leadership
By predicting that the APC would lose the 2027 election, the 2023 vice presidential candidate for the Labour Party expressed optimism that Nigerians would band together to reject what he called “bad leadership.”

Baba-Ahmed anticipated a change in the political climate of the nation, as people banded together to exercise democracy and hold elected officials accountable.

“This election, I see the APC losing. According to Baba-Ahmed, “I see Nigerians coming together in some way, listening to what someone like me is saying that democracy is not for you if you cannot practice this.” After that, Nigerians will decide to practice democracy for the first time, and bad leadership will no longer be able to hide in Nigeria.

He declared at the end that Nigerian democracy will undergo a sea change in 2027 when the people rebelled against incompetent governance.
