Ahead of the 2027 presidential election, President Bola Tinubu has been warned to be cautious of potential betrayal from some of his APC governors. The warning comes from Primate Elijah Ayodele, leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church. According to a statement from Primate Ayodele's media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, the prophet claims that not all APC governors are fully committed to Tinubu's presidency.
Primate Ayodele has identified several states where Tinubu may face significant challenges due to potential betrayal. He specifically mentioned Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Kebbi, Gombe, Adamawa, and Benue, stating that Tinubu will need to work hard to win in these states. The prophet also expressed concern about the opposition's efforts in several northern states.
On the other hand, Primate Ayodele has identified some states that are likely to work in Tinubu's favor, including Taraba, Niger, Sokoto, and Borno. He warned that Atiku's underground efforts in the north are making significant progress, and that Tinubu should not take these states for granted.
President Tinubu's ability to maintain the loyalty of his APC governors will be crucial to his chances of success in the 2027 presidential election. Primate Ayodele's warnings highlight the potential risks of underestimating the opposition's efforts in key states. The fact that Atiku is making inroads in the north, particularly in states like Kano and Kaduna, should be a cause for concern for the Tinubu administration. If Tinubu fails to address these challenges, it could have significant implications for his re-election bid and the overall stability of the country. The stakes are high, and it remains to be seen whether Tinubu can navigate these complex political waters successfully.
