Ahead of the 2027 elections, Primate Elijah Ayodele has predicted that about eight All Progressives Congress governors will act against President Bola Tinubu and the ruling party.
In a statement on Friday, January 9, signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church said the governors may either remain in the APC or defect to an opposition party, but would still work against the president and the ruling party in the lead-up to the election.
Primate Ayodele said:
“I see about eight governors working against APC ahead of 2027. It’s either they stay in the party to work against the party or move to an opposition party. President Tinubu will not find it easy in the election. There are so many things around him that look real, but they are not. They will soon start getting uncovered, so he has to prepare.”
Furthermore, Primate Ayodele revealed that a prominent figure in Nigerian politics is expected to defect to the African Democratic Congresssoon.
He stated:
“I am seeing a big name decamping to the ADC very soon. It will be a shocker to people and the political scene of the country. It will happen very, very soon.”
Meanwhile, the ADC has maintained that the 2027 elections would be between the citizens and the APC.
The party urged opposition governors to rise boldly, present fresh ideas, and lead citizens out of what it described as “national despair,” emphasizing that this was the expectation of Nigerians.
