Despite ‘Grandstanding’ APC Not Popular,Won’t Win 2027 Election- Aregbesola
Former governor of Osun State and the immediate past Minister of Interior, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola has said that President Bola Tinubu will lose the 2027 presidential election despite the “grandstanding” of the government.
Aregbesola who is the National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) made the declaration while speaking at the commissioning of the ADC secretariat of the ADC is Ilorin Kwara State on Saturday.
According to Aregbesola, “If APC is confident of its strength, it won’t be so hyped and charged as to be hounding and hunting opposition all over the place.
“How can we interpret what APC is doing all over Nigeria to us? They are harassing and intimidating everyone of our members, not just our leaders but nationwide, be it Lagos, Kebbi, Kaduna.
“If indeed they are confident of the strength they are showcasing, one would expect that they will be so calm but reverse is the case, so what does that tell you?
The former minister said that the APC was not popular among Nigerians despite the defections to the party by some members of the opposition parties. He noted that the real enemies of Nigerian democracy and the politicians recklessly decamping to the ruling party at the expenses of the mandate given to them by Nigerians.
“They themselves know that they are not popular and the party that will harvest their unpopularity is ADC.
“Regardless of the grandstanding, by the grace of God, ADC will take over the mantle of leadership in Nigeria and in most of the state,” he said.
Immediate past governor of Kwara State, Mr. Abdulfatah Amhmed who recently joined the ADC assured the people of Kwara State that the ADC was ready to take over the state in the interest of the people.
