Nigeria: 'Stop Talking, Go and Work' - Tinubu's Campaign Spokesperson Tells Wike, APC Governors
- On Wednesday, All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council spokesperson Ima Niboro urged FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and APC governors to end public exchanges and focus on grassroots mobilization for President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.
- This tension followed Wike labeling APC governors "politically lazy" after they rejected his proposed "Rainbow Coalition." Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma, chair of the APC Progressive Governors, stated the party would not support arrangements undermining its interests.
- Niboro, speaking on Arise Television's The Morning Show, described the dispute as a "quarrel among political siblings." He emphasized that both sides ultimately remain aligned on Tinubu's re-election despite disagreements over strategy.
- "All this shouting is not taking anybody anywhere," Niboro added, urging leaders to establish authority within their bases rather than trading words. He warned that internal disagreements could complicate matters for large political parties if unmanaged.
- Niboro argued the 2027 contest requires a different approach than the 2023 election, noting that President Tinubu's record will define the campaign. Both camps agree on securing his return, even if their methods differ.
