2027: Why Tinubu Will Defeat PDP, LP Coalition – Ex-Lawmaker
A former Lagos lawmaker, Mr. Olusola Sokunle, says no coalition formed to unseat President Bola Tinubu in 2027 will succeed if he decides to seek another term.
Sokunle, who represented Oshodi-Isolo Constituency I between 2015 and 2023 in the Lagos State House of Assembly, told journalists on Thursday that Tinubu would not face any serious challenge getting re-elected.
He was reacting to the recent announcement of an opposition coalition to challenge the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the next presidential election.
“We have heard and read about the formation of a coalition of some opposition leaders in PDP and Labour Party against President Bola Tinubu’s reelection, and I laugh because I know, for sure, that Tinubu will win easily.
“I make bold to say that no gang-up can work against the President; he is performing well and Nigerians will vote him again. Again, the coalition will fail as the President understands the game more than those ganging up.
“He is very experienced; he is a great strategist. The people in the so-called coalition should not waste their time as their efforts will end in vain.”,he said.
The lawmaker said Tinubu was focused on resetting the country at the moment and would respond to those plotting to unseat him at the right time.
Sokunle said not many previous coalitions formed to unseat sitting governments succeeded, predicting the present one against Tinubu would fail as well.
“No one is saying they should not gather, but their gathering is not of God; therefore, it is bound to fail,” Sokunle said.
The APC chieftain said Tinubu’s performance since his assumption of office in 2023 had won the hearts and support of Nigerians.
The former lawmaker commended the President for all his bold steps towards resetting the economy, improving the security and welfare of citizens.
He urged citizens to continue to support Tinubu in his efforts to rebuild Nigeria and set it on the path of growth and sustainable development.
