2027: Amaechi, Edo APC Trade Words over Tinubu's Re-Election Bid

Rotimi Amaechi says voting for Tinubu in 2027 would be a wrong choice and only "mad men" would support the president.

  • African Democratic Congress vice-presidential candidate Rotimi Amaechi urged Edo residents to oppose President Bola Tinubu's 2027 re-election bid, insisting only "mad men" would vote for the incumbent.
  • Criticizing the current economic state, Amaechi claimed the APC government has impoverished Nigerians, arguing that wealth is hoarded by a few individuals rather than circulating to support various sectors.
  • Echoing these calls in a video posted on Facebook, Isaac Fayose, brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, urged Nigerians to vote out the current administration.
  • Describing the situation in Abuja, Fayose alleged the economy is stagnant and noted security concerns, stating that even wealthy citizens now require armed protection at their gates.
  • As Nigerians count 97 days to the 2027 polls, opposition figures maintain the government must be replaced to restore prosperity, with Amaechi declaring Tinubu "must go by fire, by thunder.
