Atiku, Amaechi, Obi praised as APC reveals Tinubu jiltery over 2027 election
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has alleged that President Bola Tinubu is unsettled ahead of the 2027 general election despite securing the backing of a majority of state governors.
In a statement issued in Port Harcourt, Eze praised prominent opposition figures in the Africa Democratic Congress (ADC), including former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi; former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar; and former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, for what he described as their rejection of alleged attempts to undermine the 2027 election.
Eze also accused the President of the Senate, God’swill Akpabio, of supporting moves aimed at frustrating the electoral process. He challenged President Tinubu to endorse the electronic transmission of election results as a demonstration of his commitment to democratic principles and credible elections.
According to Eze, persuading governors and political actors to join the APC would not guarantee victory in 2027. He claimed that the President was apprehensive about the outcome of the poll and alleged that there were efforts to influence the conduct of the election.
The APC chieftain emphasized that the 2027 general election must adhere to international standards of transparency and fairness. He urged both the President and the Senate leadership to avoid actions that could compromise the integrity of the electoral process.
Eze further described the 2027 election as a crucial moment for Nigerians to evaluate the performance of the current administration, insisting that the process must remain free, fair and credible.
“President Bola Tinubu is jittery, unsettled and ready to go against any known international best standards that will warrant the conduct of a free, fair and credible election come 2027.
“Forcing fearful Governors and some fading politicians into joining the APC bandwagon of failed leaders and enemies of Nigeria, will not give you free ride to winning a second tenure, Eze told Tinubu.
“In fact, to say that Tinubu is jittery and unsettled ahead the 2027 presidential election is an understatement. The truth is that he has seen the handwriting of defeat boldly engraved on the wall, hence, his plot to frustrate the free and fair conduct of the 2027 presidential poll,” the APC chieftain said.
He reminded Tinubu and the Akpabio-led Senate that the conduct of 2027 general elections is sacrosanct, and therefore should avoid any moves aimed at election rigging.
“The 2027 poll is all about liberating Nigerians from the shackles of bad governance occasioned by obnoxious and anti people’s policies of the Tinubu-led APC administration.
“Even with the coercion of almost all the governors into the ruling party, Mr President has continued to lose sleep over the general election and is doing everything humanly possible to win the 2027 presidential election,” Eze said.”
