Barau Jibrin Says APC Is Strong and Ready to Win Big in 2027 Elections
Deputy Senate President Senator Barau Jibrin is confident that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) will win big in the 2027 general elections. Speaking at the APC Northwest Zonal meeting organized by Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, he called on party members to stay united and keep backing the President to ensure continued progress and electoral success.
Barau said, “Insha’Allah, we are headed for a landslide victory in 2027. Let’s keep working together, support the President, and stay united to reach our goals.” He credited the recent wave of defections from opposition parties to the APC’s growing appeal, which he linked to Tinubu’s leadership and efforts in addressing Nigeria’s security and economic problems.
“The increasing number of opposition members joining our party is no coincidence. It reflects the positive changes under President Tinubu’s leadership,” Barau noted. “Security in the Northwest has improved a lot. Areas that were once dangerous, like Birnin Gwari and parts of the Abuja-Kaduna corridor, are now safe and accessible.”
While acknowledging there is still work to be done, he stressed that the administration’s ongoing reforms and projects show they are moving in the right direction. “We are making progress. The President is working hard to tackle the nation’s challenges, especially insecurity in the North.” Barau also praised APC governors for their commitment to grassroots development, saying their efforts strengthen the party’s influence across the region.
He applauded APC National Chairman Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje for promoting unity and growth within the party, urging all members and leaders to continue collaborating. “With the strength we have now and the momentum building, it feels like no other party can match us, especially in the Northwest,” he said. “Let’s stay focused, united, and determined to deliver a big victory in 2027.”

Deji Adeyanju Faces Criticism Over Peter Obi Remarks
Human rights activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has faced backlash after suggesting that opposition figures, including Peter Obi, could contribute to President Tinubu’s chances of re-election if opposition votes remain divided.
He stated “If Tinubu gets re-elected in 2027, blame Peter Obi and the other contractor-general. With all the insecurity and kidnapping in the country, they are the ones aggressively working for his second term by ensuring opposition votes are divided like they did in 2023.”
His comments sparked criticism from many Nigerians, who argued that Peter Obi is not the only opposition figure and should not be solely blamed for political divisions.

“For us in the North, our votes for the APC and President Tinubu will show clearly that we appreciate what he’s doing for the region.”
He added “If you see the dualisation of the Abuja–Kaduna, Zaria–Sokoto, and Ilela–Badagry expressways, you will agree with me that the North is experiencing key projects it never had in the past, even when a northerner was president.”
