Social Democratic Party, SDP, presidential candidate in 2023, Adewole Adebayo, says President Bola Tinubu has already lost the 2027 election.
Adebayo spoke in an interview on Symfoni TV aired on Wednesday.
He was speaking on the 2027 presidential election, stating that Nigeria needs new hands to pilot its affairs.
“President Tinubu is already defeated. You know what they said about Boko Haram last time being technically defeated? President Tinubu has been demographically, economically, politically defeated.
“But what he’s hoping on is a truncated transition programme where one party will have two candidates and will be in court. So, they will be distracting you.
“President Tinubu is not popular in the South, he doesn’t understand what’s going on in the North. He’s a disappointment in the West. He’s an anathema in the East and the center cannot hold for him.
“So, what he is hoping on is that the Nigerian people be so disillusioned, so annoyed, so hopeless that they won’t bother to come out because he will now be able to pass together his ‘Renewed Hopelessness’ ambassadors and then get them to distribute rice to the impoverished Nigerians,” he said.
