2027: ‘Opposition Destroyed Their Journey, Would Have Given Tinubu Run For His Money’ – Fayose

Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has opined that the opposition parties have destroyed their journey to unseat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.

Naija News reports that Nigerians are expecting more than a three-horse race due to many presidential candidates that have emerged, Atiku Abubakar of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Peter Obi of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), Seyi Makinde of the Allied People Movement (APM), Kachikwu Dumebi of the ADC faction, Esther Okereke of the National Rescue Movement (NRM), Omoyele Sowore, among others.

Speaking on the recent development within the opposition parties, Fayose, during an interview on Channels Television, said Tinubu would have got a run for his money if the opposition had united.

Fayose said that President Tinubu is going unopposed in the forthcoming election

He said, “Nobody is contesting against Tinubu. You may not like to hear this. There is a difference between reality and noise on social media.

“If the opposition coalition had remained together and were to be in one party against Tinubu, I will say Tinubu will get a run for his money.

“Tinubu is like every Nigerian leader that I believe in, but let me tell you, the moment that they have NDC, and they have ADC, initially they were saying Tinubu was pushing for a one-party state now there are so many parties, they have destroyed their journey by themselves.

“You remember that when Atiku and Obi contested, it was a major three horse race and Tinubu had his way, and I’m telling you again, Tinubu will have his way with ease.”
