Former All Progressives Congress, APC, Vice Chairman, Salihu Lukman, has said he would want the APC-led Federal Government and president Bola Tinubu to lose the 2027 general elections.
Lukman, who was featured in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Morning Show’ on Friday, said he is disappointed with the approach of the opposition and urged them to step up their game if they want to wrestle power from the ruling party.
He also lamented the present condition of the opposition and absence of a political party that can check elected leaders.
He said that fears exist that the opposition might repeat the mistakes of the 2023 polls despite the judicial process and stressed the need to address the personal ambitions of opposition leaders to ensure that the country’s destiny is prioritised.

“Look, as a human being, I have no restraint. By 2027, I want APC and President Tinubu out of government defeated. But the way we’re going about it, it frustrates me.
“As a Nigerian, I don’t get excited by all these developments because, if you remember, as an advocate of the coalition and the unity of the opposition leaders, when we started about two years ago, the objectives were essentially two: to get the opposition leaders united, and to also factor the need to build a party that can hold elected leaders accountable.
“I think as it is today, no matter what comes out of the judicial process, I see us going back to 2023, repeating almost the same things that happened in 2023, and expect miracle to happen,” he said.
